Water → 4-(Nitromethyl)oxan-4-ol

참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of tetrahydro-4H-pyran-4-one (45.0 g, 449 mmol) and nitromethane (36.5 mL, 674 mmol) in ethanol (27 mL) was treated with a solution of sodium ethoxide in ethanol (2.67 M, 8.40 mL, 22.5 mmol) using the method described in Part A of Example 9. The reaction mixture was transferred to a reparatory funnel and water (450 mL) was added. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×900 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to a light brown oil. Ethyl acetate/hexanes was added and pale brown crystals formed that were isolated by filtration and dried to provide 4-(nitromethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ol (24.4 g, 34%).
