Then Coenzyme Q10 was synthesized in high yield by the coupling reaction between Grignard reagent of 1,4-dimethoxymethylether-2,3-dimethoxy-5-bromotoluene and decaprenyl bromide catalysted by CuI,followed by deprotection and oxidation of the correspond.
以辅酶Q0为原料经还原、溴代、氯甲醚保护合成了1,4-二甲氧基甲醚基-2,3-二甲氧基-5-溴甲苯,再在催化量的碘化亚铜催化下高收率地实现了1,4-二甲氧基甲醚基-2,3-二甲氧基-5-溴甲苯的格氏试剂与癸异戊二烯基溴的偶联,然后水解、氧化合成了辅酶Q10,首次实现了母体格氏试剂与侧链偶联合成辅酶Q10。
