Related Products of 30432-16-7,Some common heterocyclic compound, 30432-16-7, name is 1,4-Dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene, molecular formula is C6H8Br4, 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.

In a two-necked flask, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1) (0.02 mol) and KOH (0.02 mol) were dissolved in absolute ethyl alcohol (100 mL) and the solution was stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature. 1,4-dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene (2) (0.005 mol) was dissolved in absolute ethanol (25 mL) and added drop-wise to this solution at room temperature with the assistance of a dropping funnel. The mixture was then refluxed and stirred for 10 h. After completion of the reaction, the solution was filtered and the solid matter was obtained. It was washed with deionized water, ethanol and diethyl ether, subsequently. The solid matter was recrystallized using DMF/EtOH (1:1). The synthesized compound was dried with P2O5 in a vacuum oven. Some physical properties, the yield and FT-IR data for compound (3) are given in Table 1 and Table 2.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1,4-Dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene, its application will become more common.
