Tert-butyl acetoacetate → Ethyl 2-(4-pyridylmethyl)acetoacetate

참여 물질

반응 단계

Anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (41 ml) was added to sodium hydride (2.81 g, 70.3 mmol) under a nitrogen atmosphere, and the mixture was stirred under ice-cold water-cooling. A solution of t-butyl acetoacetate (6.33 g, 40.0 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (20 ml) was added dropwise to the mixture over 10 minutes, further after 10 minutes, 4-(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride (5.00 g, 30.5 mmol) was added thereto little by little over three minutes under a nitrogen stream, and the temperature was raised to room temperature. After two hours, a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (150 ml) was added to the reaction mixture, and the whole was extracted with ethyl acetate (100 ml). The organic layer was washed with water (100 ml) and saturated brine (50 ml) successively, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give ethyl 2-acetyl-3-(4-pyridyl)propionate (1.34 g, 18%) as a pale yellow oily matter.
