Brief introduction of Methyl 3-iodo-2-methylbenzoate

Statistics shows that Methyl 3-iodo-2-methylbenzoate is playing an increasingly important role. we look forward to future research findings about 52570-33-9.

Reference of 52570-33-9, These common heterocyclic compound, 52570-33-9, name is Methyl 3-iodo-2-methylbenzoate, its 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.

To a solution of methyl 3-iodo-2-methylbenzoate (5.20 g, 18.8 mmol) in CCI4 (90 mL) at RT was added N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) (4.02 g, 22.6 mmol) then the reaction flask was purged with N2. After the mixture was stirred at 85 C for 5 m, 2,2?-azobis(2- methylpropionitrile) (AIBN) (1.62 g, 9.42 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred overnight at 85 C then concentrated. The residue was diluted with H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The organic phase was dried over Na2S04, filtered, and concentrated to give the crude product, which was purified using silica gel eluting with EtOAc in petroleum ether from 0% to 1% to afford methyl 2-(bromomethyl)-3-iodobenzoate (2.64 g, 40% yield) as a solid.

Statistics shows that Methyl 3-iodo-2-methylbenzoate is playing an increasingly important role. we look forward to future research findings about 52570-33-9.
