Ethylene Glycol → 2-(3-Ethenylphenyl)-1,3-dioxolane

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of 3-ethenylbenzaldehyde from Step 1 (3.77 g) and ethylene glycol (1.8 mL) in benzene (40 mL) was added p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (100 mg). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 6 hours. The water produced by the reaction was collected in a Dean-Stark trap. The reaction was allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction was diluted with NH4OAc buffer and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated. Flash chromatography of the residue using 15% diethyl ether in hexane afforded the title compound.
