Hydrochloric Acid → 4,5,8-Trimethyl-6-nitroquinoline

참여 물질

반응 조건

반응 단계

A mixture of 2,5-dimethyl-4-nitroaniline (0.96 g), ferric chloride hexahydrate (2.50 g), zinc chloride (0.094 g), concentrated hydrochloric acid (0.481 mL), and ethanol (8 mL) is heated to 60° C. 1,3,3-trimethoxybutane (0.73 mL) is added dropwise while the reaction mixture is kept at 60° C. The reaction mixture is heated at reflux overnight and cooled to room temperature. A solution of 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide is added, and the mixture is extracted three times with methylene chloride. The combined organic layers are dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to afford a crude product. The crude product is purified by flash chromatography using 25% ethyl acetate in hexane as eluent, providing 6-nitro-4,5,8-trimethylquinoline.
