Reference of 4630-80-2,Some common heterocyclic compound, 4630-80-2, name is Methyl cyclopentanecarboxylate, molecular formula is C7H12O2, 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.
Example 168 Preparation of 1-(4-Bromobutyl)cyclopentane Carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester To a solution of diisopropylamine (150 mmol, 21 mL) in THF (100 mL) was added dropwise a solution of n-butyl lithium (145 mmol, 58 mL, 2.5M) in hexanes at -10 C. while maintaining the temperature below 0 C. After addition, the solution was stirred for 30 min at 0 C. To this a solution of methyl cyclopentane carboxylate (100 mmol, 13.1 g) in THF (20 mL) was added dropwise at -70 C. maintaining the internal temperature between -60 to -70 C. After addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h at -50 to -60 C. Then, a solution of 1,4-dibromobutane (100 mmol, 21.59 g) in THF (20 mL) was added dropwise and the light brown suspension was stirred for 1 h at -60 to -70 C. Then, it was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was poured into a saturated solution of ammonium chloride (200 mL) and the organic compound was extracted into ether (2*100 mL). The combined extracts were washed with a saturated brine solution (150 mL) and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After filtration of the drying agent, the solution was concentrated under vacuum and the resulting residue was distilled at 120-133 C./2.5 mm Hg to obtain 1-(4-bromobutyl)cyclopentane carboxylic acid methyl ester as a colorless oil (12.8 g, 48%). HR MS (C11H19BrO2): Obs mass, a 262.0565. Calcd mass, 262.0568 (M+).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route Methyl cyclopentanecarboxylate, its application will become more common.
