Related Products of 262298-02-2,Some common heterocyclic compound, 262298-02-2, name is 4-Methoxy-2-methylphenylacetonitrile, molecular formula is C10H11NO, 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.
Example 1 Preparation of Intermediate 2-(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)-3-oxobutyronitrile Potassium Salt Under anhydrous conditions, (4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile (25.0 kg, 155 moles, available commercially) and 68.3 kg of ethyl acetate were mixed to obtain a solution. The resulting solution was heated to 35 C. and potassium t-butoxide in THF (100 kg, 20 wt %, 178 moles) was added over a 30 to 60 minute period controlling the temperature at 35 C. Following the addition, the reaction mass was heated to 45 C. and held for 60 minutes. At the end of the hold period, a sample was analyzed by HPLC. The reaction mixture was then cooled to 25 C. and combined with 3 other batches for a total of 843 kg of solution.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 4-Methoxy-2-methylphenylacetonitrile, its application will become more common.
