Extracurricular laboratory: Synthetic route of 6240-11-5

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,6240-11-5, its application will become more common.

Reference of 6240-11-5, Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps,and cheap raw materials. 6240-11-5, name is 1-Adamantaneethanol. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below.

In a 1 L round bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser, 126.20 g (0.70 mol) of 2- (1-adamantyl) ethanol was added while 164 g of concentrated sulfuric acid and 200 g (48% aqueous solution) of hydrobromic acid were cooled in an ice bath, . The mixture was refluxed for 6 hours, cooled to room temperature and then added to 400 g of ice. The aqueous phase was extracted with 400 ml of pentane. The organic phase was washed with 2 M NaOH solution and water, dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The product was distilled in vacuo to give 153.2 g (90%) of (1- (2-bromo-ethyl) -adamantane as a colorless oil.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,6240-11-5, its application will become more common.
