Electric Literature of 437-82-1, A common heterocyclic compound, 437-82-1, name is 2,6-Difluoroanisole, molecular formula is C7H6F2O, 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.
A mixture of 1,3-difluoro-2-methoxybenzene (2.5 g, 17.3 mmol) and ethyl succinyl chloride (4.29 g, 26 mmol) in 1,2-dichloroethane (25 mL) was cooled to 0 C. Aluminum chloride (8 g, 60.1 mmol) was added slowly at 0 C. then stirred at rt for 2 h and quenched with ice and aqueous 2N HCl at 0 C. The aqueous layer was extracted twice with methylene chloride and the combined organics were washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated to provide a crude product. The crude product was purified by ISCO (80 g silica gel column) chromatography using 8.5% EtOAc in hexane to furnish 4-(3,5-difluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-butyric acid ethyl ester (2.9 g, 61%),
The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.
