Ethyl acetate hexane → HCID 131730128, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of mono nitro-benzothiophene-2-sulfonate (0.5177 g, 1.86 mmol) in 50 mL of acetonitrile and 1 mL of water was added silver carbonate (0.6169 g, 2.24 mmol) in portions in darkness. The resulting suspension was stirred overnight for 9 days, until no starting material is shown on the thin layer chromatography with an eluent of hexane/ethyl acetate (1:4). The mixture was filtered through half an inch of Celite® and the solid was washed with 3×40 mL acetonitrile. The organic filtrate was combined and organic solvent was removed via rotary evaporator to dryness and thus afforded 0.668 g of viscous solid with a yield of 98.2%. The resulting compound was not purified for further reactions.
