Sodium Hydroxide → 9-Methyl-9H-fluorene-9-carboxylic acid

참여 물질

반응 단계

12.6 g (0.053 mol) of methyl 9-methylfluorene-9-carboxylate and 53 mL of 2 molar, aqueous sodium hydroxide solution are stirred in 120 mL of 1,4-dioxane for 24 hours at ambient temperature. The dioxane is distilled off, made up to a total volume of 300 mL with water, and extracted with diethyl ether. The aqueous phase is acidified with 3 molar aqueous HCl, crystallized, and filtered. Yield: 11.25 g of white crystals (95% of theoretical yield); melting point: 168° C.–169° C.
