Research on new synthetic routes about p-Bromophenetole

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 588-96-5, its application will become more common.

Some common heterocyclic compound, 588-96-5, name is p-Bromophenetole, molecular formula is C8H9BrO, 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. Product Details of 588-96-5

To a solution of 4-bromophenetole (1.86 mL, 13.0 mmol) in anhydrous THF (15 mL) was added dropwise (over a 5-min period) a solution of n-BuLi (6.0 mL, 2.5 M in hexane) under nitrogen atmosphere at -78 C. The resulting mixture was stirred at -78 C for 1 hour, and then a solution of the Weinreb amide 43 (1.85 g, 10.0 mmol) in anhydrous THF (5.0 mL) was added dropwise (over a 10-min period). The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 16 hours. The mixture was poured into a 1 M HC1 solution (25 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (50 mL). The organic phase was subsequently washed with brine, dried over MgS04 and evaporated under vacuum. The residue was further purified by silica column chromatography (Biotage) to provide (4- ethoxyphenyl)(3-methylthiophen-2-yl)methanone (44, 1.52 g, 6.16 mmol, 62 %). NMR (400 MHz, CDC13) delta 7.84 (d, J = 8.8 Hz, 2H), 7.45 (d, J = 5.2 Hz, 1H), 7.98 (d, J = 4.8 Hz, 1H), 6.94 (d, J – 9.2 Hz, 2H), 4.1 1 (q, J = 6.8 Hz, 2H), 2.40 (s, 3H), 1.45 (t, J= 6.8 Hz, 3H); MH+ 247.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 588-96-5, its application will become more common.
