Extracurricular laboratory: Synthetic route of 2-Bromo-5-iodobenzoic acid

In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, 2-Bromo-5-iodobenzoic acid, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.

25252-00-0, A common compound: 25252-00-0, name is 2-Bromo-5-iodobenzoic acid, belongs to iodides-buliding-blocks compound, it can change the direction of chemical reaction, and react with certain compounds to generate new functional products. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below.

Oxalyl chloride (13.0 mL) is added to an ice-cold solution of 2-bromo-5-iodo-benzoic acid (49.5 g) in CH2C12 (200 mL). DMF (0.2 mL) is added and the solution is stirred at room temperature for 6 h. Then, the solution is concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue is dissolved in THF (100 mL). The resulting solution is cooled in an ice-bath and L1BH4 (3.4 g) is added in portions. The cooling bath is removed and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture is diluted with THF and treated with 0.1 M hydrochloric acid. Then, the organic layer is separated and the aqueous layer is extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers are dried (Na2S04) and the solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure to give the crude product. Yield: 47.0 g (99% of theory)

In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, 2-Bromo-5-iodobenzoic acid, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
