Electric Literature of 10076-48-9,Some common heterocyclic compound, 10076-48-9, name is Methyl 2,2-dimethoxypropanoate, molecular formula is C6H12O4, 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 14 Methyl 2-cinnamyloxyiminopropionate 2.8 g. (15 mmol) O-cinnamylhydroxylamine hydrochloride in 20 ml. water are added to 2.8 g. (19 mmol) methyl 2,2-dimethoxypropionate in 100 ml. water. The mixture is left to stand for 2 days, with occasional shaking, and the resultant oil then extracted with methylene chloride. The extracts are dried and evaporated. As residue, there are obtained 3.3 g. (94% of theory) methyl 2-cinnamyloxyiminopropionate in the form of a colorless oil. The ester can be saponified with a methanolic solution of potassium hydroxide to give 2-cinnamyloxyiminopropionic acid; m.p. 89-91 C.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route Methyl 2,2-dimethoxypropanoate, its application will become more common.
