Introduction of a new synthetic route about (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol

While traditionally a conservative industry, chemical producers will need to modernize their PR strategies to stay relevant.we look forward to future research findings about 83647-43-2, (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol.

Related Products of 83647-43-2, As we all know, there are many different methods for the synthesis of a compound, and people can choose the synthesis method that suits their own laboratory according to the actual situation. 83647-43-2, name is (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol, molecular formula is C8H9BrO, The compound is widely used in many fields, so it is necessary to find a new synthetic route. The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below.

To a flask charged with (3-bromo-2- methylphenyl)methanol (6.0 g, 30 mmol) was added a 1M TFA solution of thallium trifluoroacetate (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 residue was pumped under high vacuum for 30 min to ensure complete removal of TFA. To the residue was then added palladium(II) chloride (529 mg, 2.98 mmol), lithium chloride (2.53 g, 59.7 mmol), magnesium oxide (2.41 g, 59.7 mmol), and MeOH (150 mL). The reaction was flushed with 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. The black solution was filtered through a CELITE pad, washed with EtOAc, adsorbed onto silica and purified by silica gel chromatography to afford title compound. 1H-NMR (500 MHz, CDCI3) delta ppm 7.71 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.58 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 5.25 (s, 2H), 2.37 (s, 3H).

While traditionally a conservative industry, chemical producers will need to modernize their PR strategies to stay relevant.we look forward to future research findings about 83647-43-2, (3-Bromo-2-methylphenyl)methanol.
