Methanol → Methyl 2-hexenoate, (2E)-

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution (100 mL) of (2E)-hex-2-enoic acid (5.0 g) in tetrahydrofuran were added dropwise under ice-cooling oxalyl chloride (3.76 mL) and N,N-dimethylformamide (1 mL). The mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 30 min, methanol (10 mL) was gradually added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was treated with 6% aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, and extracted with diethyl ether. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure (50 Torr, water bath 10° C.) to give the title compound as a colorless oil (yield 5.67 g, about 100%).
