Some common heterocyclic compound, 4885-18-1, name is 1-(3-Bromophenyl)-N,N-dimethylmethanamine, molecular formula is C9H12BrN, 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. Safety of 1-(3-Bromophenyl)-N,N-dimethylmethanamine
(ii) 3-Bromo-N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (21.4 g) was reacted with magnesium turnings (2.4 g) in dry tetrahydrofuran (75 ml). The mixture was cooled to 0 and gaseous formaldehyde (generated by heating 15 g paraformaldehyde in a stream of argon) was passed over the stirred solution. Tetrahydrofuran (25 ml) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hours and acidified to pH 1. The mixture was extracted with aqueous 3N hydrochloric acid, and the aqueous extracts were made alkaline with aqueous sodium hydroxide and extracted with ether. The ether extracts were evaporated to give 3-(dimethylaminomethyl)benzyl alcohol (14.78 g, 78%).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 4885-18-1, its application will become more common.
