m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → 6-Fluoro-2-methyl-3-(oxiran-2-yl)benzonitrile

참여 물질

반응 단계

3-Ethenyl-6-fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile (14.9 g, 92.0 mmol) was added to DCM (400 mL) at 0° C. then mCPBA (47.85 g, 277.5 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at RT for 72 h. The reaction mixture was washed with saturated aqueous Na2S2O3, then with 1N NaOH, and brine. The organic layer was separated, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated to dryness. The crude product was purified by chromatography through a 330 g Redi-sep column, eluting with 0-100% hexane/DCM solvent system to afford 6-fluoro-2-methyl-3-(oxiran-2-yl)benzonitrile. LC-MS: M+1=178.
