Some common heterocyclic compound, 27829-72-7, name is Ethyl E-hex-2-enoate, molecular formula is C8H14O2, 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. Computed Properties of C8H14O2
(1) Ethyl 2,3-methanohexanoate 15.6 g. of sodium hydride (content 65.1percent, 0.423 mol) were suspended in 800 ml. of dimethyl sulphoxide, and there were added, with stirring, 154 g. (0.7 mol) of trimethyloxosulphonium iodide in small portions at 20¡ã to 30¡ãC. over a period of 20 minutes. An exothermic reaction took place with the evolution of hydrogen. After stirring for 10 minutes, there was added, dropwise, a solution of 60 g. (0.423 mol) of ethyl hex-trans-2-enoate in 70 ml. of dimethyl sulphoxide at 20¡ã to 30¡ãC. The reaction mixture was stirred at 40¡ãC. for 3 hours and then poured into 2 litres of ice-water and extracted with diethyl ether. The aqueous layer was treated with 60 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and extracted with diethyl ether. The combined ethereal layer was washed with water, dried with magnesium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Distillation of the crude product gave 23.2 g. of ethyl 2,3 -methanohexanoate having the following physical characteristics:- b.p. 57¡ã to 60¡ãC./6 mm.Hg; NMR (CDCl3 and CCl4 solution); delta: 4.05 (2H, q), 0.95 (3H, t) and 0.70-0.48 (2H, dd); IR (liquid film); nu: 2950, 1720, 1450, 1405, 1370, 1330, 1265, 1200, 1180, 1100, 1040, 860 cm-1.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 27829-72-7, its application will become more common.
