Organogermanium compounds having both hydrophilicity and lipophilicity and process for producing the same
-
, (2008/06/13)
Organogermanium compounds having both hydrophilicity and lipophilicity are respresented by the formula STR1 in which R1 and R2 are each a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, and A is a hydroxyl or amino group, a salt thereof, or an O-lower alkyl group. The compounds are produced by a process which comprises obtaining a trihalogermylcinnamic acid derivative of the formula STR2 in which R1 and R2 are each a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, and B is a cyano, carboxyl, haloformyl, or carbamoyl group, or a group esterified with a lower alkyl group, directly or indirectly from a cinnamic acid derivative of the formula STR3 in which R1, R2, and B are as defined above, and a trihalogermane and then hydrolyzing the derivative (IV).
