5471-81-8,Some common heterocyclic compound, 5471-81-8, name is Methyl 4-iodo-3-methylbenzoate, molecular formula is C9H9IO2, 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.
Under a protective atmosphere of inert gas, Pd(OAc)2 (2.2 mg, 10 mol%), XPhos (19.1 mg, 20 mol%), NBE-CO2K (3.5 mg, were added to a 4.0 mL reaction flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar. 10mol%),Methyl 3-methyl-4-iodobenzoate (0.2 mmol, 1.0 equiv.),Methyl glycidyl ether (0.6 mmol, 3.0 equiv.) and dry N-methylpyrrolidone (1.0 mL). The reaction flask was capped and stirred at room temperature for about 5 minutes, after which the mixture was heated to 80 C and stirred 24hour. After the reaction vessel was cooled to room temperature, it was quenched with water (10 mL), extracted with methyl tert-butyl ether (3¡Á10 mL), dried Na2SO4Dry, filter, and concentrate under vacuum. Purified by column chromatography,The eluent is petroleum ether: ethyl acetate = 10:1 (v/v),34 mg of methyl 7-methyl-2-(methoxymethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-5-carboxylate (light yellow oily liquid, yield 72%).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route Methyl 4-iodo-3-methylbenzoate, its application will become more common.
