Reaktionsschritte

The 2-amino-5-trifluoromethoxybenzyl alcohol from Step 2 (9.7 g, 47 mmol) and manganese (IV) oxide (21 g, 240 mmol) were refluxed in chloroform (200 mL) for 1 hour. The contents were allowed to cool and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo leaving an amber oil (8.2 g) which solidified. The oil was distilled (bulb to bulb apparatus) at 50° C. (0.1 mm) to afford a yellow solid (7.2 g). The solid was recrystallized from hexanes to afford the desired 2-amino-5-(trifluoromethoxy)-benzaldehyde as yellow crystals (4.4 g, 46%): mp. 42–44° C. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) 9.81 (s, 1H), 7.36 (s, 1H), 7.20 (d, 1H, J=9.0 Hz), 6.64 (d, 1H, J=9.0 Hz). EIHRMS m/z 205.0328 (M+, Calc'd 205.0350).
