Discovery of Trimethyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate

Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 2672-58-4, name is Trimethyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., Formula: C12H12O6

EXAMPLE 5 STR20 1,3,5-tris(hydroxymethyl)benzene To a stirring solution of trimethyl 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (10.45 g, 41.4 mmol) in 70 ml of anhydrous THF is added at room temperature a 10M solution of borane-methyl sulfide complex (25 ml, 248 mmol) and the solution is heated to reflux for 3 h. The mixture is then added slowly to 50 ml of MeOH and the resulting mixture is heated at 70 C. for 10 min to remove the methyl sulfide. Evaporation of solvent, washing twice with 50 ml of MeOH and evaporation of MeOH gives 1,3,5-tris(hydroxymethyl)benzene (6.96 g, 100%). 1 H NMR (D2 O): delta 4.52 (6H, s), 7.15 (3H, s).

The synthetic route of 2672-58-4 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
