Application of 609-12-1, A common heterocyclic compound, 609-12-1, name is Ethyl 2-bromo-3-methylbutanoate, molecular formula is C7H13BrO2, 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.
A solution of 2-bromo-3-methyllpropanoic acid ethyl ester (0.418 g, 2 mmol) and 4-bromobenzylthiol (0.402 g, 2 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was cooled to 0 C and treated with K2CO3 (0. 414 G, 3. mmol). After stirring for 2 h, the reaction was quenched with 5% HC1 (15 mL) and diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL). After seperation, the aqueous layer extracted with ethyl acetate (3 x 15 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with sat. aq NACL, dried over MGS04 and concentrated. Purification by flash column chromatography (5% ethyl acetate in heptane) provided (4-bromophen-yl-4-methylsulfanyl)-3- methylbutanoic acid ethyl ester (660 MG, 90%) as white solid. 1H NMR (CDC13), 7.43 (d, J = 8 Hz, 2 H), 7.18 (d, J = 8 Hz, 2 H), 4.17 (q, J = 6 Hz, 2 H), 3.75 (s, 2 H), 2.85 (d, J = 9 Hz, 1 H), 2.04 (m, 1 H), 1.29 (t, J = 6 Hz, 3 H), 1.02 (d, J = 6 Hz, 3 H), 0.98 (d. J = 6 Hz, 3 H).
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.
