Methyl iodide → 2'-Hydroxy-4'-methoxypropiophenone

反応手順

6.00 g of 2′,4′-dihydroxypropiophenone was dissolved in 70 ml of acetone. Thereafter, 7.09 g of potassium carbonate and 3.03 ml of methyl iodide were successively added to the reaction solution. The reaction solution was then heated to reflux. Approximately 3 hours later, the reaction solution was stood to cool and then filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under a reduced pressure. A saturated sodium chloride solution and ethyl acetate were added to the residue, so as to separate an organic layer. The obtained organic layer was washed with 2 N hydrochloric acid and a saturated sodium chloride solution, and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After removing the drying agent by filtration, the organic layer was concentrated under a reduced pressure. The residue was solidified from hexane-ethyl acetate, so as to obtain 5.64 g of the subject compound. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ (ppm): 1.23 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H), 2.95 (q, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 3.83 (s, 3H), 6.40-6.45 (m, 2H), 7.65 (dd, J=1.6 Hz, 8.0 Hz, 1H), 12.8 (s, 1H).
