Application of 4640-67-9, A common heterocyclic compound, 4640-67-9, name is 3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropanenitrile, molecular formula is C9H6FNO, its 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 0.5-2.0ml vial with 1 mmol ketone (1 eq) issolved in 2-pentanol (1.66 M) was added 1.1 eq of aromatic aldehyde and catalytic piperidine (0.08 eq), stirring vigorously. After heating under muWave for 15min at 120 C, the reaction was cooled to r.t. and precipitate was vacuum filtered and washed with minimal, cold hexanes. After drying under vacuum, solid was analyzed via NMR, IR, and mp.
The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.
