Application of 51554-93-9,Some common heterocyclic compound, 51554-93-9, name is 1-Bromo-4-octylbenzene, molecular formula is C14H21Br, 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.
General procedure: 1-Bromo-4-methylbenzene (1.0 g, 5.88 mmol) was dissolved in 30 mL anhydrous THF under argon. The solution was cooled to -78 C before solution of n-BuLi (2.4 M) in hexane (3.4 mL, 8.16 mmol) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for 10 min at -78 C. 2-Isopropoxy-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (1.9 g, 10.2 mmol) was added then. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm up to room temperature and stirred overnight before it was poured into ice water. The solution was extracted with 100 mL dichloromethane (CH2Cl2), the organic layer washed with 70 mL brine and dried with Na2SO4 before the solvent was removed. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with petroleum ether/CH2Cl2 (10:1, v/v) as an eluent to give a white solid (1.1 g, 85% yield).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 1-Bromo-4-octylbenzene, its application will become more common.
