Analyzing the synthesis route of (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol

In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles. 83647-43-2, (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.

Application of 83647-43-2 ,Some common heterocyclic compound, 83647-43-2, molecular formula is C8H9BrO, its traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc., below Introduce a new synthetic route.

INTERMEDIATE 2 5-bromo-4-methyl-2-benzofuran-1 (3H)-one; Step B; To a flask charged with (3-bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol (6.0 g, 30 mmol) was added a 1M TFA solution ofthalliumtrifluoroacetate (16.2 g, 29.8 mmol). The mixture was stirred at RT overnight. Analysis by TLC showed no starting material remaining. The solvent was removed under vacuum, and the residuewas pumped under high vacuum for 30 min to ensure complete removal of TF A. To the residuewas then added Palladium(II) Chloride (529 mg, 2.98 mmol), Lithium Chloride (2.53 g, 59.7mmol), Magnesium Oxide (2.41 g, 59.7 mmol), and MeOH (150 mL). The reaction was flushedwith CO twice, and kept under CO at room temperature. Analysis by LC showed a big product spot within 2 hours. To this solution was added ethyl acetate to precipitate the salts. Thesolution was filtered through a Celite pad, washed with EtOAc, adsorbed onto silica and purifiedby silica gel chromatography to afford the title compound: 1H-NMR (500 MHz, CDCh) 8 ppm7.71 (d, J= 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.58 (d, J= 8.0 Hz, 1H), 5.25 (s, 2H), 2.37 (s, 3H).

In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles. 83647-43-2, (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
