Continuously updated synthesis method about 1-Methoxynaphthalene

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.

Application of 2216-69-5, A common heterocyclic compound, 2216-69-5, name is 1-Methoxynaphthalene, molecular formula is C11H10O, 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.

General procedure: 1-Methoxy-3,5-dimethylbenzene (100mg, 0.73 mmol), N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS,260 mg,1.46 mmol) and one ball (5 mmdiameter, stainless steel) were transferred to a milling jar (10 mL, stainlesssteel). The ball-milling operation was performed and the progress of reactionwas monitored by TLC/1H NMR.[1]After completion, the reaction mixture was transferred into 30 mL ethyl acetateand cooled at 0 C. The product was isolated as filtrate upon paper filtrationand waste succinimide as precipitate. The resulting filtrate were concentrated in vacuoto isolate 250 mg (yield: 85%) of 2bas colourless powder. To test the efficiency in largescale, the reaction was also performed for the mono-bromination of1-methoxy-3,5-dimethylbenzene in 1.3 g scale for 1 h and the product wasisolated in 87% yield.[1] Themilling apparatus was stopped and small portion of the sample was collectedfrom the reaction jar to study either TLC/ proton NMR. Following, the reaction was started again andthis operation time was excluded for reporting the reaction timing.

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.
