Electric Literature of 18595-14-7, As we all know, there are many different methods for the synthesis of a compound, and people can choose the synthesis method that suits their own laboratory according to the actual situation. 18595-14-7 name is Methyl 4-amino-3-methylbenzoate, This compound is widely used in many fields, so it is necessary to find a new synthetic route. The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below.
Under a nitrogen atmosphere, to a 100-mL four-necked flask were added 5-methylmenthyl carboxylic acid (rac-11a) (600 mg, 3.03 mmol) obtained in Synthesis Example 7, 8, 9, or 19, thionyl chloride (0.33 mL, 1.50 eq.), and a catalytic amount of DMF, followed by stirring at room temperature for 3 hours. The solution in the system was distilled off under reduced pressure, and toluene (2 mL) was added thereto. The inside of the system was cooled to 10 C. or lower in an ice bath, and 3-methyl-4-aminobenzoic acid methyl ester (1.50 g, 3.0 eq.) was added slowly thereto. After two and a half hours, completion of the reaction was confirmed by GC-MS, and a post-treatment was performed. The reaction solution was transferred to a separating funnel, and tap water and chloroform were added thereto to effect washing. The oil layer was washed twice with dilute hydrochloric acid, and further washed once with a saturated saline solution, and then dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The resulting solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, and then isolation and purification were performed by column chromatography (heptane/ethyl acetate=4/1), whereby an amorphous solid was obtained (306 mg, yield: 29%). HRMS: mass: 345.2304 actual measurement value: 345.2298 1H-NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): delta0.85-0.98 (m, 12H), 1.20-1.33 (m, 3H), 1.45-1.65 (m, 4H), 1.82 (quid, 1H, J=6.6, 2.1 Hz), 2.29-2.40 (m, 4H), 7.05 (br, 1H), 7.86-7.90 (m, 2H), 8.14 (d, 1H, J=8.2 Hz)
At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound, Methyl 4-amino-3-methylbenzoate, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.
