Hydrochloric Acid → 3-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxymethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid

참여 물질

반응 단계

Sodium hydride (15 mg, 0.56 mmol) was suspended in anhydrous DMF and stirred under N2(g). 2,2,2-Trifluoroethanol (270 μL, 3.7 mmol) was added and after stirring the reaction mixture for 15-20 min., 3-bromomethylbenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester was added. After 8 h, 1N NaOH (aq.) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 10-15 min. The reaction mixture was acidified reaction to pH 3 with aqueous hydrochloric acid and the product was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was dried organic over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give 3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxymethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid (38 mg) which was then used without purification.
