Reference of 102-52-3,Some common heterocyclic compound, 102-52-3, name is 1,1,3,3-Tetramethoxypropane, molecular formula is C7H16O4, 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.
To amixtureof5.0g (19.6 mmol) ofL-tryptophan methylesterand50 mLof methanol,6.0 mL(23.6 mmol) of 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane wasadded. The reaction mixture wasadjusted pH 1-2 withHCl(5N) and stirred at 45 Cfor 48h. The mixture was evaporatedto dryness in vacuo, the residue wasdissolved in a mixture ofwater(30mL) and ethyl acetate (30mL),and the aqueousphasewas extracted with ethyl acetate (30mL×3). The organic phase wascombined, washed successively with 10%Na2CO3andsaturatedNaCl,dried over anhydrousNa2SO4, filtered, andevaporatedto dryness in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatographyonsilica gel (Chloroform: Methanol, 30:1) toobtain5.4 g of the title compound as pale yellow oilin 88.5% yield.ESI-MS (m/e) 319 [M+H]+.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1,1,3,3-Tetramethoxypropane, its application will become more common.
