Allyl bromide → HCID 19025017, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.5 g (5.8 mmol) of 2-(4-methyl-2-oxo-3-phenyl-3-pyrrolin-1-yl)isobutyric acid was dissolved in 50 ml of acetonitrile, and 0.83 g (6 mmol) of potassium carbonate and 0.73 g (6 mmol) of allyl bromide were added thereto. The mixture was refluxed under heating for 1 hour. After completion of the reaction, acetonitrile was distilled off, and ice water was added to the residue. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was treated by a conventional method to obtain 1.7 g of a crude product. This crude product was purified by column chromatography to obtain 1.4 g (yield: 82%) of the desired product having a melting point of from 65° to 67° C.
