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. 67191-35-9, name is 1-Isopropoxy-2-vinylbenzene, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., name: 1-Isopropoxy-2-vinylbenzene
A vacuum dried Schlenk flask was charged with imidazolium hydrochloride salt 4b (129 mg, 0.26 mmol, 1.15 eq.) and 10 mL dry toluene was introduced into the flask using a syringe. The white suspension thus formed was vigorously agitated and to it was introduced under an argon atmosphere solid KHMDS (95 %, 60 mg, 0.28 mmol, 1.23 eq.). The suspension turned homogeneous and was left to stir for 30 min. To this was then introduced, under an argon atmosphere, Grubbs first generation catalyst (190 mg, 0.23 mmol, 1.0 eq.) and the mixture was left stirring for another 2 hours at room temperature. The toluene was then evaporated in vacuuo to give a dark brown coloured semisolid. No purification of this mixture was attempted, however as significant degradation and loss of intermediate complex was observed. The crude brown semisolid was then redissolved in 10 mL of DCM and to this was introduced CuCl (91 mg, 0.92 mmol, 4 eq.) and 1-isopropoxy-2-vinylbenzene (75 mg, 0.46 mmol, 2 eq.) and the mixture stirred at 40C for 3 hours. The reaction was then cooled and DCM evaporated in vacuuo to give a dark green coloured semisolid. The semisolid was first washed with dry, distilled pentane (2¡Á50 mL) and dried under high vacuum. The resulting green powder was loaded onto a column of silica gel soaked in pentane. This was then eluted successively using pure pentane to remove unreacted vinylbenzene and then a 1/1 mixture of pentane/DCM and finally pure DCM to remove a green band which was collected and dried under high vacuum to yield a green coloured amorphous powder. C41H58N2OCl2Ru (766.88) calc. for C 64.21, H 7.62, N 3.65, found C 64.36, H 7.68, N 3.49.
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.
