These common heterocyclic compound, 1663-61-2, name is (Triethoxymethyl)benzene, 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. category: ethers-buliding-blocks
General procedure: The starting hydrazide 4, 8e-i (10 mmol) was added to a mixture of the appropriate triethyl orthoester (10 mol) and 0.1 g p-TsOH in 20 mL of xylene and kept under reflux for 3 h (TLC). After cooling, the mixture was washed with water (30 mL), dried over MgSO4 and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The oily residue was subjected to column chromatography (silica gel, eluent: hexane/AcOEt, 1:2 v/v) or crystallised from benzene/hexane mixture.
The synthetic route of (Triethoxymethyl)benzene has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
