Some common heterocyclic compound, 4341-76-8, name is Ethyl 2-butynoate, molecular formula is C6H8O2, 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. Formula: C6H8O2
To a solution of (E)- and/or (Z)-N-hydroxy-3-fluoro-benzenecarboximidoyl chloride (11.1 g, 64 mmol) in diethylether (151 mL) was added ethyl 2-butynoate (7.2 g, 7.5 mL, 64 mmol) at 0 C. followed by the dropwise addition of triethylamine (7.8 g, 10.7 mL, 77 mmol) and the resulting mixture allowed to warm up to room temperature overnight. The mixture was then poured onto ice-water, and extracted with diethylether. The combined organic layers were then washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated. Purification by chromatography (SiO2, heptane:ethyl acetate=100:0 to 1:1) afforded the title compound (6.3 g, 39%) which was obtained as a white solid. MS: m/e=250.1 [M+H]+.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 4341-76-8, its application will become more common.
