Methanol → 2-Iodo-4-nitro-5-(trifluoromethyl)aniline

참여 물질

반응 단계

5-Amino-2-nitrobenzotrifluoride (16.25 g, 78.8 mmol) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (100 mL) and methanol (100 mL) and to this solution was added p-toluenesulfonic acid (0.18 g, 0.95 mmol) and N-iodosuccinimide (17.8 g, 78.8 mmol). The solution was stirred all day. N-iodosuccinimide (0.78 g, 3.47 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (0.2 g, 1.05 mmol) were then added and the solution stirred overnight at room temperature under nitrogen. The solution was concentrated under vacuum to a small volume. Water (200 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and and a brown solid precipitated out. The solid was filtered- and washed with water, then dissolved in ethyl acetate (100 mL) and diethyl ether (60 mL). The organic solution was washed with 10% sodium thiosulfate solution (50 mL). This created an emulsion which was alleviated by adding diethy! ether and water and filtering undissolved material. The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with 10% sodium thiosulfate solution (50 mL), water was then added to the aqueous layer and the layers separated. The organic layer was washed with brine (50 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to yield the title compound as a brown solid that was dried under vacuum.
