Yu, Zhiqun;Yao, Hongmiao;Xu, Qilin;Liu, Jiming;Le, Xingmao;Ren, Minna published 《Bronsted acid-catalyzed chlorination of aromatic carboxylic acids》. The research results were published in《Phosphorus, Sulfur and Silicon and the Related Elements》 in 2021.Category: esters-buliding-blocks The article conveys some information:
The chlorination of aromatic carboxylic acids with SOCl2 has been effectively performed by reacting with a Bronsted acid as the catalyst. Based on this discovery, an efficient catalytic method that is cheaper than traditional catalytic methods was developed. 20 substrates were chlorinated offering excellent yields in a short reaction time. And the SOCl2/Bronsted acid system has been used in a larger scale preparative reaction. A dual activation mechanism was proposed to prove the irreplaceable system of SOCl2/Bronsted acid.Methyl 3-methylbenzoate (cas: 99-36-5) were involved in the experimental procedure.
Methyl 3-methylbenzoate (cas: 99-36-5) is a common ester.Esters are widespread in nature and are widely used in industry. In nature, fats are in general triesters derived from glycerol and fatty acids.Category: esters-buliding-blocks Esters are responsible for the aroma of many fruits, including apples, durians, pears, bananas, pineapples, and strawberries.
