Analyzing the synthesis route of 3597-91-9

At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound,3597-91-9, [1,1′-Biphenyl]-4-ylmethanol, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.

Application of 3597-91-9, 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. 3597-91-9, name is [1,1′-Biphenyl]-4-ylmethanol. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below.

General procedure: To a solution of 1-(p-bromophenyl)ethanol I-23 (201 mg, 1.0 mmol) in DMF (2.0 mL) was added HIO3 (194 mg, 1.1 mmol) and TEMPO (7.8 mg, 0.05 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 2 h at room temperature under an Ar atmosphere. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was poured into aq Na2S2O3, and extracted with a mixture of Et2O: hexane=1:1 (3*10 mL). Then, the organic layer was poured into satd NaCl (10 mL) and extracted with Et2O (10 mL). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4. After being filtration and removal of the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by flash short column chromatography on silica gel (EtOAc-hexane, 1:4) to give p-bromoacetophenone II-23 in 99% yield.
