Application of 10444-38-9,Some common heterocyclic compound, 10444-38-9, name is Ethyl 4-cyanobutanoate, molecular formula is C7H11NO2, 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.
General procedure: To a solution of the cyano ethyl esters (4.8mmol) in pyridine (26ml) were added water (13ml), acetic acid (13ml), sodium hyposphite (39.06mmol) and Raney nickel. The suspension was then stirred at 40C for 2hr. The catalyst was removed by filtration, and washed with ethanol (5ml). Water (300ml) and diethyl ether (80ml) were added to the filtrate, and the organic layer was separated. The aqueous phase was further extracted with diethyl ether (2x80ml), and the combined extracts were washed with water (300ml), and brine (100ml), and dried over Na2SO4 anhydrous, concentrated under vacuo, and the residue was purified by silica gel dry column vacuum chromatography ( DCVC) by stepwise gradient elution with dichloromethane/hexane (50:50 to 100:0).
The synthetic route of 10444-38-9 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
