Some common heterocyclic compound, 944317-92-4, name is 1-Bromo-4-fluoro-5-isopropyl-2-methoxybenzene, molecular formula is C10H12BrFO, 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. Recommanded Product: 944317-92-4
General procedure: A 500 mL dry flask was charged with 1-bromo-4-fluoro-5-isopropyl-2-methoxybenzene (BrMIP) (24.60 g, 0.10 mol) and dissolved in toluene (80 mL) and THF (80 mL). The resulting solution was flushed with argon, and tri- isopropylborate (32 mL, 0.1 mol) was added. The mixture was cooled to -80 C. Then 2.5 n-BuLi in hexanes (48 mL, 0.12 mol) was added slowly, maintaining a temperature below -55C. After completion of the n-BuLi addition, the reaction mixture was slowly warmed (1 hour) to -10C and water (120 mL) was added, followed by commercially available 2-bromo-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (Formula VI’, X = Br, R2 = CN) (25.00 g, 0.10 mmol) and the catalyst, 1 , 1 bis( di-tertbutylphosphino)ferrocene palladium dichloride (265 mg, 0.8 mol%) addition. The organic layer turns dark brown immediately. The biphasic mixture is aged at room temperature with vigorous stirring for 12 hours. The aqueous layer was removed and the organic layer was washed with 1 M NaOH (aq) (100 mL), water (300 mL) and filtered through silica gel. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to yield brown oil which was crystallized from EtOH/water (300/100 mL). The resulting slurry was filtered and the filter cake was washed with cold 50% EtOH. The product was dried at 40 C under vacuum to yield 4′-fluoro-5′- isopropyl-2′-methoxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-2-carbonitrile (Formula VII’, Ri = CN, R2 = isopropyl) as a pale white solid (25.20 g, 75%). According to the same procedure in various scales and different concentrations of catalyst some other biaryl of Formula Vlh and Vll2 are prepared and listed in Table 3 and Table 4, respectively. For NMR data and melting points see Table 1 and 2.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 944317-92-4, its application will become more common.
