Simple exploration of 4-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzene-1,2-diamine

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 658-89-9, its application will become more common.

Some common heterocyclic compound, 658-89-9, name is 4-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzene-1,2-diamine, molecular formula is C7H7F3N2O, 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. Formula: C7H7F3N2O

2-Hydroxymethyl- and 2-ethyl-5-trifluoromethoxybenzimidazole. The procedure of Philips, M. A. was used. A mixture of 2-amino-4-trifluoromethoxyaniline (0.7 g, 0.0036 Mol) and corresponding carboxylic acid (0.00546 Mol) in HCl (3.5 ml, 4N) was refluxed for 6 h. Water (5 mL), and 0.5 g of charcoal were added, and the mixture was refluxed 10-15 min. After cooling, the mixture was filtered and resulted clear filtrate was washed with ether (2×10 mL). The water layer was neutralized with excess of diluted NH4OH, the precipitate was filtered, washed with water, and dried.2-Hydroxymethyl-5-trifluoromethoxybenzimidazole. Glycolic acid was used, R(HO)CH2. Yield 0.65 g (75 wt. %). M.p. 192-194 C. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): 4.68 (d, 5.5 Hz, 2H), 5.67 (t, 5.5 Hz, 2H), 7.05 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.38 (s, 1H), 7.49 (br s, 1H), 12.48 (br s, 1H). 13C NMR (DMSO-d6): 57.62, 104.44, 110.79, 111.98, 114.70, 118.20, 120.08 (q, J=254.8 Hz), 143.21, 157.22. 19F NMR (DMSO-d6): -57.76. [M+1]+ 233.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 658-89-9, its application will become more common.
