Discovery of C8H12O2

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.

Electric Literature of 27741-65-7, A common heterocyclic compound, 27741-65-7, name is Ethyl 2-cyclobutylideneacetate, molecular formula is C8H12O2, 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.

General procedure: In a 5 mL microwave vial containing alpha,beta-unsaturated ethyl ester (100mg, 1.00equiv), boronic ester (2.00 equiv), potassium carbonate (2.00 equiv) and [RhOH(COD)]2 (0.05 equiv) was added 2% wt. TPGS-750-M solution in water (3 mL). The mixture was stirred vigorously at ambient temperature for the indicated time. The reaction mixture was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was subsequently dried over MgSO4, filtrated and reduced under vacuum. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica (eluent: 0-10% methanol in dichloromethane) to yield the desired product.

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.
