Ethyl 3-mercaptopropionate → Ethyl 3-((4-hydroxyphenyl)-methylthio)propionate

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of NaH (60% dispersed in oil, 0.731 g, 21.7 mmol) in dry DMF (15 ml) was added Ethyl 3-mercaptopropionate (2.66 g, 19.8 mmol). When the evolution of hydrogen ceased, 4-Hydroxybenzyl bromide from Step A was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 16 hours at room temperature, quenched with sat. NH4Cl and concentrated in vacuo. The crude residue was taken in EtOAc and washed with water and brine. The aqueous layer was washed one more time with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The purification was done by flash chromatography on silica gel column (dichloromethane:ethyl acetate, 95:5) to provide the title compound.
