Simple exploration of 2-Methoxy-N-methylaniline

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2-Methoxy-N-methylaniline, its application will become more common.

Application of 10541-78-3,Some common heterocyclic compound, 10541-78-3, name is 2-Methoxy-N-methylaniline, molecular formula is C8H11NO, 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.

General procedure: Dichloromethane (20 mL) and phenylpropynoic acid (11 mmol) were added into a 50 mL round bottom glass flask, and then N-alkylaniline (10 mol) was added at 0 C. Thereafter, a solution of DCC (15 mol), DMAP (0.5 mmol) and dichloromethane (20 mL) was slowly added dropwise with stirring. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and then stirred overnight. The mixture was washed with 5 mL saturated NaCO3 solution, 5 mL saturated NaCl solution, and 5 mL water. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (petroleum ether/ethyl acetate as the eluent) affording the corresponding N-phenylpropynamide 1.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2-Methoxy-N-methylaniline, its application will become more common.
