2-Iodophenol → HCID 66967196, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

An ice-cold solution of 2-iodophenol (6.00 g, 272 mmol) in DMF (100 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of NaH (1.30 g, 54.4 mmol) in DMF. 1-Bromo-pent-2-ene (4.87 g, 327 mmol) was then added. The mixture slowly warmed to room temperature overnight. The reaction was quenched with water (50 mL) and the mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×). The combined organics were washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4 to give the title compound (8.50 g, 99%) as a yellow oil: 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.75 (dd, J=7.5, 1.2, Hz, 1H), 7.36-7.30 (m, 1H), 6.98 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1H), 6.76-6.71 (m, 1H), 6.01-5.89 (m, 1H), 5.67 (t, J=5.7 Hz, 1H), 4.54 (d, J=5.7 Hz, 2H), 2.08 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 2H), 0.98 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 3H).
