Methyl iodide → 4-Methoxydibenzothiophene

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of dibenzothiophen-4-ol (i)(14.2 g, 71.0 mmol) in acetone (500 ml) was added powdered potassium carbonate (14.72 g, 106.5 mmol) and methyl iodide (4.43 ml, 71 mmol). The mixture was heated to reflux and stirred like this for 16 hours. The mixture was then cooled and filtered through a Celite™ pad. The resulting filtrant was concentrated in vacuo to give an oily residue that was diluted in dichloromethane (100 ml) and washed with 1M NaOH and saturated brine solution. The organic layer was dried using MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give a buff coloured solid that corresponded to the title compound and was used without any further purification. (15.2 g, 100%) m/z (LC-MS, ESP), RT=4.22 min, (M+H)=215.1
