Some common heterocyclic compound, 2150-38-1, name is Methyl 3,4-dimethoxybenzoate, molecular formula is C10H12O4, 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. COA of Formula: C10H12O4
Example 1 Synthesis of 3,4-dimethoxy(4,4-dimethyl-3-oxopentanoyl)benzene In a 200 ml three-necked flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, dropping funnel, reflux condenser, and a nitogen-inlet tube, 2.45 gm (61 mmol) of 60% sodium hydride, 10 gm (51 mmol) of methyl 3,4-dimethoxybenzoate, and 100 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran were mixed with stirring under nitrogen stream, and refluxed with heating while 6.1 gm (61 mmol) of pinacolone was added dropwise. The refluxing under heat was continued for 7 hours. After cooling the reaction mixture, 30 ml of 2N hydrochloric acid was added and the mixture was extracted twice with chloroform. The extract was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was removed by evaporation to give a crude product. Hexane was added to the crude product and insoluble substances were filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated by evaporation, and recrystallization afforded 8.9 gm of the target compound as colorless needles (yield: 65%). Melting Point: 52.3-53.3 C. IR(gammaKBr, cm-1): 1602, 1521, 1470, 1446, 1365, 1299, 1266, 1218, 1188, 1131, 885, 786, 729. 1 H-NMR(CDCl3, delta): 1.26(9 H, s, t-C4 H9), 3.95(3 H, s, OCH3), 3.96(3 H, s, OCH3), 6.24(1 H, s), 6.90(1 H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 7.49(1 H, s), 7.51(1 H, d, J=8.4 Hz). Elemental analysis: Calculated (%) C: 68.16, H: 7.63; Found (%) C: 68.23, H: 7.60.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2150-38-1, its application will become more common.
