3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenol → 3-(3-Trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-but-2-enoic acid ethyl ester

Temperatur

130 °C

A mixture of 3-trifluoromethyl-phenol (1.09 mL, 8.96 mmol) and ethyl-2-butynoate (2.0 g, 17.83 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (14 mL) was treated with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (1.4 mL, 9.37 mmol). The reaction was then heated at 130° C. for 2 h. At this time, the reaction was concentrated in vacuo. The residue dissolved in dichloromethane (100 mL) and was washed with a 2N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (1×100 mL), a 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1×100 mL) and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (1×100 mL). The organics were then dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, rinsed with dichloromethane and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by Analogix flash chromatography (40 g, 1-10% ethyl acetate/hexanes) afforded 3-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-but-2-enoic acid ethyl ester (1.31 g, 53%) as a clear, colorless oil: HR-ES-MS m/z calculated for C13H13O3F3 [M+H]+ 275.0890, observed 275.0889; 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 1.13 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3H), 2.45 (s, 3H), 4.01 (q, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 4.68 (s, 1H), 7.49 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 7.57 (br. s., 1H), 7.66-7.75 (m, 2H).
