Methanol → 4-Amino-5-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile

참여 물질

반응 단계

4-Amino-2-trifluoromethyl-benzonitrile (20.44 g, 109.79 mmoles) and p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (1.05 g, 5.52 mmoles) were dissolved methanol (200 mL) and THF (200 mL), and the reaction mixture was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction vessel was wrapped in aluminium foil, while the solution was stirred for 20 min., then N-iodosuccinimide (30.41 g, 135.17 mmoles) was added and the reaction was allowed to stir overnight (16 hrs). The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo, triturated with hexanes (3×400 mL) and concentrated to dryness. The crude solid was dissolved in diethyl ether (400 mL), washed with water (3×), the organic extracts were diluted with hexanes (400 mL) and a white solid precipitated. The solid was filtered and dried in a vacuum oven (35° C. @762 Torr) overnight to yield the title compound.
