Analyzing the synthesis route of 1-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzene

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzene, its application will become more common.

Electric Literature of 444-29-1,Some common heterocyclic compound, 444-29-1, name is 1-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzene, molecular formula is C7H4F3I, 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.

General procedure: A 50 mL round-bottomed flask, equipped with a gas inlet tube, a refluxcondenser and a magnetic stirring bar was charged with MCM-41-2PPdCl2 (102 mg, 0.05 mmol Pd), aryl halide (5.0 mmol) and HCOONa(7.5 mmol). The flask was flushed with CO. DMF (5 mL) was addedby syringe and a slow stream of CO was passed into the suspension.The mixture was vigorously stirred at 110?130 °C for 2?20 h, cooledto room temperature and diluted with diethyl ether (50 mL). Thepalladium catalyst was separated from the mixture by filtration,washed with distilled water (2 × 10 mL), ethanol (2 × 10 mL) and ether(2 × 10 mL) and reused in the next run. The ethereal solution waswashed with water (3 × 20 mL), and dried over anhydrous magnesiumsulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue waspurified by flash column chromatography on silica gel (hexane?ethylacetate = 10 : 1).

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzene, its application will become more common.
