Introduction of a new synthetic route about C4H8I2

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 628-21-7.

Each compound has different characteristics, and only by selecting the characteristics of the compound suitable for a specific situation can the compound be applied on a large scale. 628-21-7, name is 1,4-Diiodobutane, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows., name: 1,4-Diiodobutane

A solution of 66.1 g (500 mmol) of indan-2-one [615-13-4] and 340.9 g (1100 mmol) of 1,4-diiodobutane [628-21-7] in 500 ml of THF is added dropwise over the course of 2 h to a vigorously stirred mixture of 40.0 g (1 mol) of NaOH, 40 ml of water, 18.5 g (50 mmol) of tetrabutylammonium iodide [311-28-4] and 1500 ml of THF. When the addition is complete, the mixture is stirred at room temperature for a further 14 h, the aqueous phase is separated off, and the organic phase is evaporated to dryness. The residue is taken up in 1000 ml of n-heptane, washed five times with 300 ml of water each time and dried over magnesium sulfate. The crude product obtained after removal of the n-heptane is subjected to fractional distillation in an oil-pump vacuum (about 0.2 mbar, T about 135 C.). Yield: 83.0 g (345 mmol), 69%. Purity about 95% according to1H-NMR.

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 628-21-7.
