Reaktionsschritte

To a toluene solution (423 mL) of commercially available 3′-trifluoromethylacetophenone (79.6 g, 0.423 mol) was added pyridinium bromide perbromide (135.4 g, 0.423 mol) under ice cooling and stirred for 5 hours while heating up to room temperature. The reaction liquid was ice cooled again, followed by dropwise adding 400 mL of distilled water to stop reaction and fractionation. A toluene layer was washed with 400 mL of a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate, followed by drying with magnesium sulfate anhydride and concentration under reduced pressure and distillation under reduced pressure to obtain an objective compound (92.35 g, 81.7%).
