Electric Literature of 583-75-5,Some common heterocyclic compound, 583-75-5, name is 4-Bromo-2-methylaniline, molecular formula is C7H8BrN, 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.
Potassium acetate (317 mg, 3.22 mmol), 4,4,4′,4′,5,5,5′,5′-octamethyl-2,2′-bi(1,3,2-dioxaborolane) (300 mg, 1.18 mmol) and 4-bromo-2-methyl-aniline (200 mg, 1.08 mmol) were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (3 mL). The reaction mixture was degassed using argon. 1,1′-Bis-diphenylphosphine ferrocene palladium(II) dichloride (24 mg, 0.03 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was heated at 80 C for 5 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and diluted with ethyl acetate (20 mL). The organic layer was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate (20 mL) and brine (20 mL). The organic layer was dried with sodium sulfate, filtered and purified by flash silica column chromatography (heptane:ethyl acetate, 0-40%) to obtain a crude mixture of starting material and product. The mixture was purified using reversed phase column chromatography to obtain the title compound as a clear oil (50 mg, 21%). ESI-MS m/z: 234 (M+H)+.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 4-Bromo-2-methylaniline, its application will become more common.
