Application of 104750-60-9

The synthetic route of 2-Bromo-1-(methoxymethoxy)-4-methylbenzene has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.

Reference of 104750-60-9, In the next few decades, the world population will flourish. As the population grows rapidly and people all over the world use more and more resources, all industries must consider their environmental impact. 104750-60-9, name is 2-Bromo-1-(methoxymethoxy)-4-methylbenzene belongs to ethers-buliding-blocks compound, it is a common compound, a new synthetic route is introduced below.

General procedure: 4-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenoxy)-3-methoxybenzoic acid (18o). The bromination of p-cresol, carried out via the method of Narender, et al.,3 was followed by MOM protection4 (96% yield over two steps). A solution of bis(pinacolato)diborane (2.5 g), dioxane (40 mL), KOAc (2.5 g) and the aryl bromide (6.5 mmol) was purged with nitrogen before Pd(dppf)Cl2 (0.47 g) was added. The mixture was refluxed overnight. Silica chromatography (gradient to 20% EtOAc/hexanes) gave the boronate ester (1.93 g), which was dissolved in acetone (20 mL) and treated with a solution of Oxone (4 g) in H2O (20 mL). After 10 min, NaHSO3 was added and the resulting solution was extracted with EtOAc. Silica chromatography (gradient up to 15% EtOAc/hexanes) gave 2-(methoxymethoxy)-5-methylphenol (0.578 g, 53% over two steps). The diaryl ether was prepared from the phenol and appropriate 4-fluorobenzalde using General Procedure D. Silica chromatography (gradient up to 40% EtOAc/hexanes) gave the intermediate aldehyde (481 mg, 47%). The oxidation was followed by MOM cleavage with conc. HCl (0.25 mL) in 50% THF/iPrOH (10 mL) to yield 18o (391 mg, 89% over two steps). 1H NMR (CDCl3) delta 7.73-7.66 (m, 2H), 6.99-6.85 (m, 3H), 6.76 (s, 1H), 3.97 (s, 3H), 2.24 (s, 3H).

The synthetic route of 2-Bromo-1-(methoxymethoxy)-4-methylbenzene has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
