Discovery of C5H9N

The chemical industry reduces the impact on the environment during synthesis Pivalonitrile. I believe this compound will play a more active role in future production and life.

Synthetic Route of 630-18-2, 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. 630-18-2, name is Pivalonitrile, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows.

General procedure: To an ice cold solution of pivalonitrile (1f, 120 muL, 1.085 mmol) in Et2O (1.0 mL)was added an ethereal solution of 2-naphthylmagnesium bromide (2b, 0.75 M, 1.88mL, 1.410 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at 60 C in a sealed tube for 2 h.After cooling to 0 C, the reaction mixture was treated with anhydrous MeOH (132muL), followed by the addition of CuBr2 (24.3 mg, 0.109 mmol) and anhydrous DMF(10.0 mL). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at 80 C under an oxygenatmosphere for 6 h. Then the reaction was quenched by the addition of pH 9ammonium buffer solution and the organic materials were extracted with Et2O. Thecombined organic extracts were washed with water, and then with brine and driedover anhydrous MgSO4. The solvents were removed in vacuo and the resulting crudematerial was purified by flash column chromatography using hexane-EtOAc (90:10)to afford 2-naphthonitrile
