Adding a certain compound to certain chemical reactions, such as: 79669-50-4, name is methyl 5-bromo-2-methyl-benzoate, belongs to esters-buliding-blocks compound, can increase the reaction rate and produce products with better performance than those obtained under traditional synthetic methods. Here is a downstream synthesis route of the compound 79669-50-4, Application In Synthesis of methyl 5-bromo-2-methyl-benzoate
To a I OL five necked flask fitted with condenser, stirrer bar, N2 inlet and bubbler was added methyl-5-bromo-2methylbenzoate (500.0 g, 2.18 mol, 1.0 eq.) and Nbromosuccinimide (Fluorochem, 388.5 g, 2.18 mol, 1.0 eq.)to a stirring solution of 1,2-dichloroethane (1.9 L). Themixture was heated to 90 C (oil bath). Azobisisobutyronitrile (5.0 g, 0.03 mol, 0.014 eq.) was dissolved into DCE (100 mL) and 20 mL was added into a dropping funnel. This was added slowly when the reaction mixture reached 85 C. When the violent reflux and foaming ceased, the remaining 80 mL was added in one portion to the reaction mixture and left to stir at 90 C for 1 hr. NMR showed the reaction to be complete with around 11% of starting material stillremaining. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature using cardice in the oil bath and once the internal temperature had fallen to -30C, the reaction mixture was quenched with water (2.OL). After 5 minutes, two identical reaction mixtures were combined, transferred to a separating funnel and the organic layer was collected. The aqueous layer was extracted again using DCM (2 x 2.OL). All the organic layers were combined and washed with water (2L) andbrine (2L), dried with MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuo to give an orange liquid (1.397 kg, 104%, from 2 x 500g runs).
In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, methyl 5-bromo-2-methyl-benzoate, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
