مستخلص: Provided is a method for producing a difluorocyclopropane compound under milder reaction conditions and with high selectivity and high yield. The method for producing a difluorocyclopropane compound of the present invention is characterized by using sodium bromodifluoroacetate as a difluorocyclopropanation agent. With the disclosed method, a difluorocyclopropane compound can be produced under milder reaction conditions and with a higher conversion rate and a higher yield compared to conventional art. Further, by-products can be reduced significantly, thus allowing waste to be greatly reduced. Accordingly, the production method of the present invention is easy to implement industrially (can be employed on an industrial scale) and is thus extremely practical and useful.

Claim: 1. A method for producing a difluorocyclopropane compound by reacting a compound having a chain or cyclic ethylene skeleton with a difluorocyclopropanation agent, wherein bromodifluoroacetate is used as the difluorocyclopropanation agent.
Claim: 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound having the ethylene skeleton is a compound having the following general formula (1): [chemical expression included] wherein in the general formula (1): R 1 to R 4 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, or a C 1-10 linear or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon group, aromatic ring group, alkoxy group, alkoxycarbonyl group, trialkylsilyl group or boryl group, which may be substituted with any group; and R 2 and R 4 may mutually constitute a portion of the same aliphatic ring or aliphatic heterocycle, or may mutually form a single bond, and wherein the difluorocyclopropane compound is a compound having the following general formula (2): [chemical expression included] wherein in the general formula (2), R 1 to R 4 are the same as above.
Claim: 3. The method according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the bromodifluoroacetate is represented by the following formula: BrCF 2 CO 2 R 5 wherein R 5 represents an alkali metal atom or an alkali earth metal atom.
Claim: 4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the alkali metal is sodium, lithium or potassium and the alkali earth metal is magnesium.
Claim: 5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction temperature of the reaction is 100 to 200° C.
Claim: 6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction time of the reaction is 5 to 60 minutes.
Current U.S. Class: 570/133
