2,2-Dimethyl-5-phenyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione → Methyl atropate

참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of 25 g (135.1 mmol) N,N-dimethylammonium iodide and 11.91 g (54.1 mmol) 2,2-dimethyl-5-phenyl-[1,3]dioxane-4,6-dione in 585 ml abs. methanol was heated to 65° C. and the reaction was allowed to continue over night at 65° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool down to room temperature and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was treated with diethyl ether, extracted with a satured NaHCO3 solution and brine and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and 9.01 g (quant.) of 2-phenyl acrylic acid methyl ester was isolated as a colourless oil. The compound was used without further purification.
