Ethyl bromoacetate → 3-Cyano-3-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)pentanedioic acid diethyl ester

関与物質

反応手順

Cool a solution of sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (723 mL, 1 M in tetrahydrofuran, 723 mmol) to 0° C. in an ice bath. Add a solution of 3,4-dimethylphenylacetonitrile (50.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (130 mL) over about 1.5 hours. When the addition is complete, warm the reaction mixture to ambient temperature and allow to stir. After 2 hours, transfer the above solution via cannula into a cooled (−50° C.) solution of ethyl bromoacetate (126 g, 757 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (250 mL). After the transfer is complete, allow the reaction mixture to warm to ambient temperature. After 18 hours, dilute with diethyl ether (500 mL) and extract with water, 1 M hydrochloric acid solution, saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate, and then brine. Dry the organic layer over MgSO4, filter, and concentrate in vacuo to give a residue. Recrystallize the residue from diethyl ether to give the title compound as a solid.
