Electric Literature of 939-80-0,Some common heterocyclic compound, 939-80-0, name is 4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile, molecular formula is C7H3ClN2O2, 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.
4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile (331 mg) and cesium carbonate (700 mg) were added to a solution of compound (1a) (500 mg) in acetonitrile (5.5 mL), and the mixture was stirred under heating at 70 C. for 4 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was allowed to standing still for cooling and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried by the addition of anhydrous sodium sulfate. After removal of the solvent by evaporation, the residue was subjected to slurry washing (acetonitrile/methanol), thereby to obtain compound (10a) (470 mg, yield 64%) as a milky white solid.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile, its application will become more common.
