Calcium Fluoride → Methyl 4-(fluoromethyl)benzoate

참여 물질

반응 단계

Dry acetonitrile (150 ml) was added to 25.00 g of methyl 4-(bromomethyl)benzoate, 19.02 g of potassium fluoride and 9.51 g of calcium fluoride, and the mixture was heated to reflux for 3 days. The reaction solution was concentrated. After addition of 200 ml of acetonitrile, insolubles were removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated again. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (YMC•GEL® SIL-60-230/70, n-hexane:ethyl acetate=10:1–4:1), followed by distillation under reduced pressure to provide 14.45 g of the objective compound as colorless oil. B.p. 118.5–119° C./18 mmHg.
