Water → 2-Bromofluorenone

反応手順

In a three-liter flask having four openings equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a dropping funnel, and a reflux condenser, respectively, 256 g (1.4 mol) of fluorenone, 1 L of water, three drops of a surfactant, and five drops of sulfuric acid were placed and stirred to mix. By adding 250 g (1.6 mol) of bromine into the mixture, a reaction was started. After the reaction had been conducted at 50° C. for 12 hours, unreacted bromine was decomposed with an aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen sulfite. The reaction product, which was a dark yellow solid, was filtered and thus 365 g of a crude product was obtained. The crude product was dissolved in toluene and was subsequently washed with water and a sodium hydrogencarbonate aqueous solution. The resulting organic liquid was dried using anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After filtration, the liquid was concentrated and then allowed to stand at 0° C., so that a yellow solid was precipitated. The precipitate was filtered and subsequently washed with toluene, followed by drying. Thus, 339 g (1.3 mol, yield of 92%) of a yellow solid product was obtained. This product was subjected to gas chromatography and the purity of the product was 99.4%.
