Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 31599-61-8, name is 4-Iodo-1,2-dimethylbenzene, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., Formula: C8H9I
General procedure: Aryl-halide (0.2 mmol, 1 equiv.), Ir(dtbbpy)(ppy)2PF6 (1.8 mg, 0.002 mmol, 1 mol %), NiI2 (3.1 mg, 0.01mmol, 5 mol %), DMSO (2.0 mL) was added to a 10 mL schlenk flask equipped with a magnetic stirrerbar. This resulting mixture was sealed and degassed via vacuum evacuation and subsequent backfill with ethylene for three times. Then, N,N,N?,N?-tetramethylethylenediamine, TMEDA (60 muL, 2 equiv.)and N,N-diisopropylethylamine, DIPEA (70 muL, 2 equiv.) were subsequently added in this order. The solution was gently bubbled with ethylene balloon for approximately 30 seconds. The solution was then taken up into a 8 mL stainless steel syringe pre-purged with argon, and quickly assembled onto thestop-flow micro tubing, SFMT setup. Solution was pumped into the SFMT at 400 muL/min while maintaining approximately 1:1 gas-liquid slug flow at 250 PSI. Filled SFMT was then irradiated with blueLED (2 meter strip, 18 W) in a 100oC oil bath for 24 hours. The SFMT was wash with DCM (8 mL) and subjected to GC analysis (Figure S5). Then water (30 mL) was added to reaction mixture and extracted with DCM (10 mL) three times. Combined organic layer was successively wash with brine three timesand dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was then subjected to flash column chromatography to yield the product as a mixture of meso/dl isomers (which could not be separated by column chromatography).
The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.
