Versuchsvorschrift

Initially, 4-bromoacetophenone (3) can be treated with powdered phosphorous pentachloride to produce 1-(4-bromophenyl)-1-chloroethylene (4). Compound 4 was then treated with potassium hydroxide to produce 4-bromophenylacetylene (5) at a 60% yield. Treatment of compound 5 with ethyl magnesium bromide was followed by reaction with chlorotrimethylsilane. The resulting product (4-bromophenylethynyl) trimethylsilane (6) was recovered with a 90% yield. Compound 6 was then treated with ethyl magnesium bromide, followed by reaction with carbon dioxide to produce (4-carboxyphenylethynyl) trimethylsilane (7) in 89% yield. Compound 7 was then deprotected using KOH in methanol to form 4-ethynylbenzoic acid (8) in 96% yield. Compound 8 is a useful building block for forming a variety of molecular switches in accordance with the present invention, and was used in forming molecular switches of the following examples.
