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. 29823-21-0, name is Ethyl 8-Bromooctanoate, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., HPLC of Formula: C10H19BrO2
1h: Preparation of Compound 8 A 3-neck 300 mL round-bottomed flask equipped with a reflux condenser, magnetic stir bar and a nitrogen inlet was charged with 5 g (1 equivalent) of 4-hydroxybenzonitrile, absolute ethanol 150 mL, and 15.7 mL (1 equivalent) of sodium ethoxide. This mixture was stirred at 25 C. for 15 minutes. Ethyl 8-bromooctanoate (10.5 g, 1 equivalent) was then added dropwise over 10 minutes. The resulting mixture was heated to reflux (75 C.) for 72 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled and the solids filtered off. The solvent was removed on a rotary evaporator. The crude residue was dissolved in methylene chloride (200 mL) and washed with saturated NaHCO3 (2*75 mL), H2O (1*100 mL) and brine (1*100 mL). The crude material was then dissolved in ethanol (125 mL) and water (10 mL). LiOH (5 g) was added and the resulting mixture was heated to reflux (75 C.) for 1 hour then stirred at ambient temperature overnight. The solvent was evaporated and 75 mL of H2O was added. The aqueous solution was acidified to a pH of about 3 with concentrated HCl and the flask cooled to 4 C. An off-white colored solid precipitated. This material was collected by vacuum filtration and dried on the high vacuum overnight to give the crude acid. These solids were further purified by recrystallization from Ethyl acetate/hexanes (95/5) and again with chloroform to give 4.5 g of the product, 8-(4-cyanophenoxy)octanoic acid (41% yield). Melting point: 137-140 C. Molecular Formula: C15H19NO3. Combustion analysis: %C: 68.94 (calc’d), 68.57 (found); %H: 7.33(calc’d), 7.13(found); %N: 5.36 (calc’d), 5.28 (found).
The synthetic route of 29823-21-0 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
