Application of 42872-73-1, Each compound has different characteristics, and only by selecting the characteristics of the compound suitable for a specific situation can the compound be applied on a large scale. 42872-73-1, name is 2-Bromo-4-methylbenzonitrile, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows.
To a stirred solution of Int4.1 (500 mg) in toluene (7.5 ml) was added 2-bromo-4-methylbenzonitrile (1.2 g), Pd2dba3 (140 mg) and rac-BINAP (191 mg). The flask was twice degased and backfilled with argon. The mixture was stirred at r.t. for 5 minutes. Caesium carbonate (2.5 g) was added, the flask was twice degased and backfilled with argon and the mixture was heated to reflux for 4h. Further Pd2dba3 (140 mg) and rac-BINAP (191 mg) was added, the flask was twice degased and backfilled with argon and the mixture was heated to reflux for 2h. Water was added and the reaction mixture was extracted with a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (10:1). The combined organic phases were washed with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried (sodium sulfate) and the solvent was removed in vacuum. Silica gel chromatography gave 205 mg of the title compound. 1H-NMR (400MHz, DMSO-d6): delta [ppm]= 1.46 (s, 9H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 6.96 (dd, 1H), 7.54 (d, 2H), 7.57 – 7.63 (m, 2H), 7.66 (d, 2H), 7.79 (s, 1 H), 7.87 (dd, 1 H), 9.04 (dd, 1 H), 9.34 (s, 1 H), 9.47 (s, 1H).
The chemical industry reduces the impact on the environment during synthesis 2-Bromo-4-methylbenzonitrile. I believe this compound will play a more active role in future production and life.
