Some common heterocyclic compound, 21524-39-0, name is 2,3-Difluorobenzonitrile, molecular formula is C7H3F2N, 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. Computed Properties of C7H3F2N
2,3-difluoro-5-nitrobenzonitrile (0272) At 0 C., to a solution of 2,3-difluorobenzonitrile (20.8 g, 149.82 mmol) in sulfuric acid (100 mL) was added potassium nitrate (30.3 g, 299.59 mmol) in portions over 1 h period. The resulting solution was kept stirring for 2 h at 0 C. and then ice water (500 mL) was added. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (300 mL×3). The organic phases were combined, washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by flash chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate in hexane (0% to 10% gradient) to yield 2,3-difluoro-5-nitrobenzonitrile as brown solid (3.6 g, 13%).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 21524-39-0, its application will become more common.
