Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 630-18-2, name is Pivalonitrile, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., Product Details of 630-18-2
General procedure: To a solution of 4-bromobiphenyl 1a (3.0 mmol, 699.3 mg) in THF (3.0 mL) was added n-BuLi (4.5 mmol, 1.55 M in hexane, 2.87 mL) at 50 C. The obtained mixture was stirred for 30 min at 50 C under an argon atmosphere. Pivalonitrile (6.0 mmol, 498.8 mg) in THF (2.0 mL) was added to the mixture at 50 C and the obtained mixture was stirred for 30 min in the temperature range of 50 C to room temperature. MeOH (2.0 mL) was added to the mixture. Then, I2 (12.0 mmol, 3045.6 mg) and K2CO3 (12.0 mmol, 1658.4 mg) were added to the mixture at room temperature, and the obtained mixture was stirred for 6 h at 70 C. Sat. aq. Na2SO3 solution (20.0 mL) was added to the reaction mixture, and the product was extracted with AcOEt (10.0 mL x 3). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4. After filtration and removal of the solvent, the residue was purified by silica-gel column chromatography (chloroform: n-hexane 1:1) to give 4-cyanobiphenyl 2a (451.6 mg, 84%).
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.
