Potassium Carbonate → 2-hydroxy-6-((5-phenyl-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methoxy)benzaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(bromomethyl)-5-phenyl-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran (110 mg, 0.45 mmol) and 2,6-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (120 mg, 0.90 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) was added K2CO3 (120 mg, 0.90 mmol). After stirred at room temperature for 1 h, it was diluted with water and EtOAc, organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc. Organic layer was combined, washed with brine, dried and concentrated to give crude product, which was purified by column (Hexanes/EtOAc=3:1) to give 2-hydroxy-6-((5-phenyl-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methoxy)benzaldehyde (120 mg). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ (ppm) 11.92 (s, 1H), 10.36 (s, 1H), 7.35 (m, 4H), 7.18 (m, 2H), 6.49 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.13 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 4.48 (s, 2H), 4.32 (s, 2H), 3.95 (t, J=5.6 Hz, 2H), 2.41 (m, 2H); MS (ESI) m/z 309.
