Ethylene Glycol → 2,2-Dimethyl-3-phenylpropanoic acid

온도

196 °C

A solution of 2,2-dimethyl-3-phenylpropanenitrile (1.0 g, 6.28 mmol) in ethylene glycol (5 mL) was treated with solid potassium hydroxide (1.06 g, 18.84 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 48 h at 196° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere. Ethylene glycol was removed under vacuum distillation. 1 N Sodium hydroxide solution (25 mL) and ethyl acetate (15 mL) were added to the brown residue. The layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (375 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated under reduced pressure to give 0.856 g (76%) of 2,2-dimethyl-3-phenylpropanoic acid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz) δ 12.20 (s, 1H), 7.28-7.24 (m, 2H), 7.22-7.20 (m, 1H), 7.15-7.13 (m, 2H), 2.78 (s, 2H), 1.07 (s, 6H). This compound was used in subsequent reaction with out further analysis.
