Application of 37746-78-4, The chemical industry reduces the impact on the environment during synthesis 37746-78-4, name is (E)-Ethyl 4-bromobut-2-enoate, I believe this compound will play a more active role in future production and life.
Into a 10-L 4-necked round-bottom flask was placed 2-bromo-4-fluorophenol (500 g, 2.62 mol, 1.00 equiv), N,N-dimethylformamide (5 L), potassium carbonate (1253 g, 9.07 mol, 3.46 equiv), and ethyl (2E)-4-bromobut-2-enoate (1010 g, 5.23 mol, 2.00 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred for 12 h at room temperature. The solids were collected by filtration. The reaction was then quenched by the addition of 15 L of water and extracted with 3×10 L of ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined and washed with 4×20 L of brine. The mixture was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1/20). The collected fractions were combined and concentrated under vacuum to give 500 g (63%) of ethyl (2E)-4-(2-bromo-4-fluorophenoxy)but-2-enoate (5) as a white solid.
In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, (E)-Ethyl 4-bromobut-2-enoate, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
