A common compound: 660-49-1, name is 3-Fluoro-5-iodoaniline, belongs to iodides-buliding-blocks compound, it can change the direction of chemical reaction, and react with certain compounds to generate new functional products. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below. 660-49-1
3-Iodo-5-fluoro-1-nitrobenzene (5.2 g; 19.48 mmol) is dissolved in a 4/3 water/tetrahydrofuran mixture. Powdered iron (8.7 g; 156 mmol), followed by acetic acid (4.5 ml) are added at room temperature and the suspension formed is stirred overnight at 40 C. The reaction mixture is filtered over diatomaceous earth and poured on to water. The mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated. The residue is chromatographed over silica gel with n-hexane/ethyl acetate (3/1). The pure fractions are combined and the solvent is evaporated off. The residue is diluted with methylene chloride (30 ml), and pyridine (4,0 ml; 49.5 mmol) and trifluoroacetic anhydride (3.44 ml; 24.7 mmol) are added and the mixture is stirred for one hour at room temperature. The reaction solution is poured on to aqueous hydrochloric acid (1 M; 50 ml) and the mixture is extracted twice with ethyl acetate (50 ml). The combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated. The residue is chromatographed over silica gel with n-hexanelethyl acetate (9/1). The pure fractions are combined and the solvent is evaporated off. [00367] Yield: 5.40 g (98%) as a white solid. [00368] MS: 333 (M)
In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, 660-49-1, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
