Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 37746-78-4, name is (E)-Ethyl 4-bromobut-2-enoate, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., category: esters-buliding-blocks
General procedure: To a vigorously stirring solution of alpha-imino ester 1 (0.5 mmol,1 equiv) and E-ethyl-4-bromocrotonate or methyl-4-bromocrotonate (2, 1.5 mmol, 3 equiv) in EtOH (2 mL) was added indium powder (1 mmol, 2 equiv). The mixture was allowed to stir vigorously for 6 h at 30 C. After this period, the reaction mixturewas quenched with 2 mL of water and transferred to a separating funnel and extracted using ethyl acetate (315 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Then the solvent was evaporated under vacuum. Purification of the resulting crude reaction mixture by column chromatography on silica gel (EtOAc/Hexane as eluent) gave the product 3 (see Tables 1 and 2 and Scheme 2 for individual entries).
The synthetic route of 37746-78-4 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
