Organohalogen compound having conjugated double bond, process for preparing acetate compound and alcohol compound thereof, and compound used to synthesize the organohalogen compound

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for preparing an organohalogen compound of the following general formula (5), wherein R2 represents a linear, branched, or aromatic monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, n is the number of methylene groups of 1 to 10, and X2 represents a halogen atom, the process comprising: obtaining a reaction product mixture by subjecting a (ω-halo-2-alkenyl)triphenylphosphonium halide compound of the following general formula (1), wherein n is as defined for the general formula (5) above, X1 and X2 represent, independently of each other, a halogen atom, and Ph represents a phenyl group, to a phosphorus ylide preparation reaction with an alkali metal alkoxide of the following general formula (3), wherein R1 represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and M represents an alkali metal atom, in the presence of a lithium halide of the following general formula (2), wherein X3 represents a halogen atom, and then subjecting the aforesaid reaction product mixture to a Wittig reaction with an aldehyde compound of the following general formula (4), wherein R2 is as defined for the general formula (5) above, to form the organohalogen compound of the general formula (5) above.
