Brief introduction of 71838-16-9

Chemical properties determine the actual use. Each compound has specific chemical properties and uses. We look forward to more synthetic routes in the future to expand reaction routes of 71838-16-9.

71838-16-9, These common heterocyclic compound, 71838-16-9, name is 2-Bromo-1-iodo-4-methylbenzene, 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.

[(2-Bromo-4-methyl-phenyl)-difluoro-methyl]-phosphonic acid diethyl ester: A solution of (bromo-difluoro-methyl)-phosphonic acid diethyl ester (25.00 g, 93.6 mmol) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (50 mL) was added drop wise into a suspension of activated zinc (6.12 g, 93.6 mmol) under Argon. The reaction was initiated by heating and kept under 50 C. After the mixture was stirred for 3 h, copper (I) bromide (13.43 g, 93.6 mmol) was added and stirred for 1 h. A solution of 2-bromo-l-iodo-4-methyl-benzene (11.88 g, 40.0 mmol) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (25 mL) was added slowly to the reaction mixture. The resulting suspension was then stirred at room temp for 18 h. Water (100 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and the solution filtered through celite. The filtrate was diluted with EtOAc (250 mL) and organic layer was washed with H20 (50 mL), NaHC03 (5%, 50 mL) and H20 (50 mL). The solvent was removed and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with hexanes/EtOAc (4:1) to provide a colorless oil (11.75 g, 82%): .H NMR (300 MHz, CDC13) 8 7.51 (d, 1H), 7.49 (s, 1H), 7.19 (d, 1H), 4.26 (m, 4H), 2.36 (s, 3H), 1.48 (s, 9H), 1.37 (m, 6 H).

Chemical properties determine the actual use. Each compound has specific chemical properties and uses. We look forward to more synthetic routes in the future to expand reaction routes of 71838-16-9.
