m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → Ethyl 2-(4-acetoxy-2-methylphenoxy)acetate

참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of ethyl 2-(4-acetyl-2-methylphenoxy)acetate (683) (8.78 g, 37 mmol), mCPBA (2.eq.), and p-TsOH monohydrate (0.15 eq.) in dichloromethane (160 mL) was heated at 40° C. overnight. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and washed with 1M KI (2×200 mL), 5% NaHSO3 (2×150 mL), and water (200 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified by silica gel chromatography (0-100% EtOAc in hexanes) to provide ethyl 2-(4-acetoxy-2-methylphenoxy)acetate (684) (72%).
