Synthetic Route of 702641-04-1,Some common heterocyclic compound, 702641-04-1, name is 2-Iodo-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid, molecular formula is C8H4F3IO2, 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.
Borane-THF (1.0M solution in THF; 94 mL; 94 mmol) was added to a stirred solution of 2-iodo-5- (trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid (Intermediate 3, 2.97g; 9.4 mmol) in THF (300 mL) at 00C under N2- The reaction was heated at reflux for 90 min and then carefully quenched with 6N HCl until no further gas evolution. The reaction was diluted with H2O (250 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3 x 250 mL). The combined extracts were washed with brine (300 mL), dried over MgStheta4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (0-25% EtOAc/hexanes gradient) to afford [2-iodo-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methanol as a white solid. LCMS = 285.0 (M – 17)+. lH NMR (CDCI3, 500 MHz): delta 7.97 (d, J = 8.3 Hz5 1 H), 7.79 (s, 1 H), 7.28 (d, J= 8.4 Hz, 1 H),4.75 (s, 2 H).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2-Iodo-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid, its application will become more common.
