Reaktionsschritte

3-fluoro-4-hydroxybenzonitrile (ABCR F03756F.AB, 2 g; 14.59 mmol; 1 eq.) was dissolved in DMF (40 mL). Then ethyl 4-bromobutyrate (4.27 g; 21.88 mmol; 1.50 eq.) and potassium carbonate (3.02 g; 21.88 mmol; 1.50 eq.) were added to the reaction mixture and it was heated to 80° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT and diluted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with water (3×), brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated affording the title compound as a yellow solid (3.56 g, 97%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz) δ 7.86-7.83 (d, J=11.43 Hz, 1H), 7.68-7.66 (d, J=8.73 Hz, 1H), 7.37-7.32 (m, 1H), 4.20-4.03 (m, 4H), 2.46-2.44 (m, 2H), 2.03-1.99 (m, 2H), 1.19-1.15 (t, J=6.62 Hz, 3H). HPLC (Method A) Rt 4.47 min (Purity: 98.8%).
