Hydrochloric Acid → 2-Amino-6-difluoromethoxy-benzonitrile

関与物質

反応手順

To a solution of 2-difluoromethoxy-6-nitro-benzonitrile (4.0 g, 14.9 mmol) (Example I3) in isopropanol (100 ml) is added tin(II) chloride (10.2 g, 53.6 mmol). Aqueous hydrochloric acid (concentrated) (14.4 ml) is added slowly and the reaction mixture is heated to reflux for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature, diluted with water and the pH is adjusted to 10 by addition of NaOH (2M). The mixture is extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to yield 2-amino-6-difluoromethoxy-benzonitrile (3.32 g, 93% yield) in pure form. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz): 7.05 (t, 1H), 6.65 (d, 1H), 6.55 (t, 1H), 6.50 (t, 1H), 4.25 (s, br, 2H) ppm.
