Discovery of 1-Bromo-4-iodo-2-methoxybenzene

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.

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. 755027-18-0, name is 1-Bromo-4-iodo-2-methoxybenzene, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., Formula: C7H6BrIO

To a solution of 2-bromo-5-iodoanisole (12.5 g, 40 mmol) in DCM (200 mL) was added a 1.0 M DCM solution OfBBr3 (40 mL) dropwise at 0 0C. The reaction mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature. After stirring overnight, the reaction mixture was cooled to 0 C and MeOH (5 mL) was added dropwise. After stirring for 10 minutes at room temperature, the reaction mixture was washed with IN HCl (2 x 50 mL), water (50 mL) and brine (50 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4. filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was then dissolved in DMF (100 mL) and Cs2CO3 (26 g, 80 mmol) and 2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)ethyl methanesulfonate (11 g, 40 mmol) were added. After stirring at 80C under nitrogen for 4 h, the reaction mixture was dissolved in EtOAc (100 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine (3 x 50 mL), dried over MgSO4 and filtered. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the crude compound was purified by flash chromatography using cyclohexane/EtOAc (85/15) as eluent to afford the title compound (11.5 g, 60% yield) as a white solid.
