Electric Literature of 1535-75-7,Some common heterocyclic compound, 1535-75-7, name is 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)aniline, molecular formula is C7H6F3NO, 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: General Procedure A: To a pressure tube containing ethyl 4,4,4- trifluoroacetoacetate (1.2 eq) and Eaton”s reagent [7.5% wt. phosphorous pentoxide p- toluenesulfonic acid solution ( 1 mL/0.3 mmol)], was added the corresponding aniline (1 eq). Then the pressure vessel was sealed and heated to 130 , and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight. After cooling to 0 C, the reaction was poured into ice water (~5 mL/1 mmol) and the solution pH was adjusted to 5 by the addition of saturated aqueous potassium carbonate. In situations when a pale yellow precipitate was formed, the solution was filtered and the residue was washed with water and cold ethanol, then dried in vacuo to yield the crude 4-hydroxyquinoline. Alternatively, the solution could be extracted with CHCl3 (20 mL x 3) and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. After filtration, the solvent was removed in vacuo to give the crude 4-hydroxyquinoline. Then the residue was purified by column chromatography using hexane”EtOAc as an eluent (30% of EtOAc) to give the desired products with yields ranging from 45% to 60%. (0217) Characterization data for compound 1 and 1a e have been reported by Kozikowski. [0140] 8-trifluoromethoxy-2-trifluoromethyl-4-quinolinol (compound 1): Yield 51%.1H NMR (DMSO-d6) 7.19 (1H, s), 7.74 (1H, apparent t, J = 8.4 Hz), 7.88 (1H, d, J = 7.2 Hz), 8.28 (1H, d, J = 8.4 Hz), 9.71 (1H, br s).13C NMR (DMSO-d6) 101.5 (q, J = 2.4 Hz), 119.9, 120.8 (q, J = 258 Hz), 122.4 (q, J = 273 Hz), 123.5, 123.7, 127.3, 128.8, 141.8 (q, 1.8 Hz), 144.5 (q, J = 36 Hz), 163.9. UVmax: 294 nm, 303 nm, 315 nm
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)aniline, its application will become more common.
