These common heterocyclic compound, 32122-09-1, name is Ethyl 2-(benzyloxy)acetate, its 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. Application In Synthesis of Ethyl 2-(benzyloxy)acetate
Preparation of intermediate G-1. TiCI4, Bu3N,1 -methylimidazoleA-1 G-1To a stirred solution of A-1 (60 g, 309 mmol, 1 eq) and 1 -methylimidazole (30.4 g, 370 mmol, 1 .2 eq) in CH2CI2 (1 L) was added acetyl chloride (24.3 g, 309 mmol, 1 eq) at -45 C under N2. After stirring for 20 min, TiCI4 (210 g, 1 .08 mol, 3.5 eq) and tributylamine (230 g, 1 .24 mol, 4 eq) were added to the mixture at -45C under N2, and continues to stir for 50 minutes at -45C under N2. After completion, water and ethyl acetate were added. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The organic layer was washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solids were removed by filtration and the solvents of the filtrate were removed under reduced pressure. The crude was purified via silica column chromatography using a heptane to ethyl acetate gradient to afford a pale yellow oil, G-1. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-cf) delta ppm 1 .30 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3 H), 2.28 (s, 3 H), 4.27 (q, J=7.2 Hz, 2 H), 4.41 (s, 1 H), 4.58 (d, J=1 1 .8 Hz, 1 H), 4.75 (d, J=1 1 .8 Hz, 1 H), 7.32 – 7.43 (m, 5 H)
The synthetic route of Ethyl 2-(benzyloxy)acetate has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
