Extracurricular laboratory: Synthetic route of 1003-68-5

At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound,1003-68-5, 5-Methylpyridin-2(1H)-one, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.

Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps,and cheap raw materials. 1003-68-5, name is 5-Methylpyridin-2(1H)-one. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., 1003-68-5

A mixture of 5 -methyl- lH-pyridin-2-one (100 g), bromo benzene (259 g, comprising greater than 0.2% by weight dibromobenzene isomers) and dimethylformamide (200 ml) were added in to a round bottom flask and stirred up to complete dissolution. Potassium carbonate (254 g) and copper (I) chloride (18.2 g) was added to the above reaction mass and then heated to 130-140C. The reaction mass was stirred at 130-140C for 10 hrs. After the reaction completion, the reaction mass was cooled to 25-35C. Toluene (500 ml), aqueous sodium chloride (75 g of sodium chloride in 500 ml of water) was added to the reaction mass and stirred for 15-30 mins at 25-35C. The reaction mass was filtered and the filtrate was allowed to settle. Organic and aqueous layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with toluene. Organic layers combined and was washed with aqueous sodium chloride, treated with carbon and filtered through hyflo. The solvent from the filtrate was distilled off completely under vacuum at below 60C. Toluene (300 ml) was added to the obtained residue and stirred for 30 mins. The reaction mass was heated to 77-83C and stirred for 45 mins. The reaction mass was cooled to 25-35C over 60 mins. The reaction mass was further cooled to 0-6C. The solid obtained was filtered, washed with toluene and dried under vacuum. DM water (500 ml) was added to the above obtained wet compound followed by 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (10 g of sodium hydroxide in 20 ml of water) at 25-35C. The reaction mass was heated to 75-85C and stirred for 30-60 mins. The reaction mass was then gradually cooled to 25-35C and stirred for 60 mins. The reaction mass was further cooled to 0-5 C and stirred for 3 hrs. The obtained solid was filtered, washed with water and dried to provide the title compound.Yield: 120 g; purity by HPLC: 99%; The XRPD is set forth in Figure 1 The DSC is set forth in Figure 2.
