Bromine → HCID 25143348, 화합물

To a solution of 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2-butanone (1 mmol) in methanol (8 mL) stirred at room temperature, a solution of bromine (160 mg, 51.6 μL, 1 mmol) in methanol (1 mL) was added in one portion. The orange reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 2 h, and, after the starting material had been consumed (TLC monitoring, hexanes-ethyl acetate 4:1 v/v), the reaction was quenched by adding a 0.3 M sodium thiosulfate solution (618 μL), and diluted with ethyl acetate (15 mL). The resulting mixture was washed with water (15 mL), the organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted further with ethyl acetate (3×15 mL). The combined organic phase was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue that was chromatographed on a silica gel column using hexanes-ethyl acetate (15:1 v/v) as mobile phase to give 1-bromo-4-(4-bromophenyl)-2-butanone as a white solid (193 mg, 63%): mp 63-64° C., Rf=0.42 (hexanes-ethyl acetate 4:1 v/v); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 2.89 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 2H). 2.96 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 2H), 3.84 (s, 2H), 7.07 (d, J=8 Hz, 2H), 7.41 (d, J=8 Hz, 2H); 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ 29.3, 34.3, 41.2, 120.2, 130.2, 131.7, 139.4, 201.0; HRMS (EI) Calcd. for C10H10Br2O: 303.9098 (M+). Found: 303.9090.
