4-Methylbenzoyl Chloride → N-Methoxy-N,4-dimethylbenzamide

Temperatur

0 °C

To a mixture of N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (8.20 g) in THF (dry) (75 mL) was added TEA (23.4 mL) at 0° C. After being stirred at 0° C. for 20 min, 4-methylbenzoyl chloride (10 g) in THF (dry) (20 mL) was added to the reaction mixture. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 days. The mixture was quenched with water at room temperature and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to give N-methoxy-N,4-dimethylbenzamide (11.7 g) as a yellow oil. n-Butyllithium (1.6 M in hexane) (25.1 mL) was added dropwise to a mixture of 1,4-dibromobenzene (8.29 g) in THF (dry) (105 mL) at −78° C. for 10 min. The mixture was stirred at the same temperature under nitrogen for 30 min to form white precipitates. A solution of N-methoxy-N,4-dimethylbenzamide (6 g) in THF (dry) (20 mL) was added to the reaction mixture at −78° C. and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature under nitrogen for 30 min and then at room temperature under a dry atmosphere with anhydrous calcium chloride tube overnight. The mixture was quenched with sat. NH4Cl aq. at room temperature and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was separated, washed with water and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluted with EtOAc in hexane) to give the title compound (7.18 g) as a pale yellow solid.
