These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-iodobenzene, its application will become more common.

Synthetic Route of 128140-82-9,Some common heterocyclic compound, 128140-82-9, name is 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-iodobenzene, molecular formula is C7H5F2IO, 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.

EXAMPLE 110; Preparation of 1-(difluoromethoxy)-4-ethynylbenzene; A solution of 1-(difluoromethoxy)-4-iodobenzene (12.7 g, 50 mmol) in triethylamine is treated with tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (4.0 g, 3.5 mmol), copper iodide (925 mg, 4.85 mmol), and a solution of ethynyl(trimethyl)silane (6.9 mL, 50 mmol) in acetonitrile at room temperature, stirred for 1 h at 60 C. and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was dissolved in Et2O and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and the concentrate was purified by chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc/hexane: 5/95) to give {[4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]ethynyl}(trimethyl)silane (11.5 g, 96%) as an oil. A solution of {[4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]ethynyl}(trimethyl)silane (10.0 g, 41.7 mmol) in MeOH/CH2Cl2 (1/1) was treated with cesium carbonate (16.3 g, 50 mmol) at room temperature, stirred for 1.5 h, diluted with CH2Cl2 and filtered through a pad of silica gel. The filtrate was concentrated to dryness to give the title compound (6.8 g, 97%) as an oil. MS (+) EI: 168.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-iodobenzene, its application will become more common.
