Electric Literature of 58481-11-1, As we all know, there are many different methods for the synthesis of a compound, and people can choose the synthesis method that suits their own laboratory according to the actual situation. 58481-11-1, name is Methyl 2-chloroisonicotinate, molecular formula is C7H6ClNO2, The compound is widely used in many fields, so it is necessary to find a new synthetic route. The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below.
In a dried flask was zinc powder (3.05 g, 46.69 mmol) suspended in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (25 mL) under nitrogen. The resulting suspension was warmed to 60° C., then 1,2-dibromoethane (0.168 mL, 1.95 mmol) was added and stirred at that temperature for 15 min. It was cooled to room temperature, then chlorotrimethylsilane (0.2 mL, 1.58 mmol) was added and stirred at room temperature for 1 h 15 min. Then, 4-(bromomethyl)-2-fluoro-1-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (10 g, 38.91 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added in 6 equal portions every 10 minutes under ice-cooling. After complete addition the ice-bath was removed and the reaction mixture stirred at room temperature for 18 h. Then was stirring switched off to let the solids settle. The supernatant was used in next transformation. To a solution of methyl 2-chloroisonicotinate (5.15 g, 30 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.693 g, 0.60 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL) under nitrogen in a dried flask was added freshly prepared (3-fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)zinc(II) bromide (12.55 g, 38.91 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 mL). The resulting bright yellow mixture was heated to 60° C. for 2 h 20 min, then cooled to room temperature. The reaction was quenched by the addition of 10percent NH4Cl. It was diluted with ethyl acetate. After phase separation, the organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and evaporated. The residue was suspended in 150 mL MTBE and sonicated, then the yellow insolubles were filtered off and washed with MTBE. The volume of the filtrate was increased to ca. 200 mL, then hydrogen chloride (7.50 mL, 30.00 mmol) (4M in dioxane) was added dropwise. A colorless precipitate formed. The resulting suspension was stirred for ca. 1 h, then sonicated for 2 min. The formed solid was collected and washed with MTBE and dried. The solid was dissolved in DCM and washed with 10percent K2CO3. After phase separation, the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM. The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4 and evaporated. Methyl 2-(3-fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)isonicotinate (8.26 g, 88percent) was isolated as a pale orange oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, cdcl3) delta 3.94 (s, 3H), 4.24 (s, 2H), 7.06-7.18 (m, 2H), 7.52 (t, 1H), 7.69-7.75 (m, 2H), 8.68-8.75 (m, 1H). MS m/z 314 (M+H)+
