Hydrogen Peroxide → HCID 54199337, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 11.0 g (47 mmol) of 2-n-undecylpyridine and 8 ml of an aqueous 35% hydrogen peroxide dissolved in 30 ml of glacial acetic acid was heated at 70° to 80° C. for 3 hours, and further 3 ml of the aqueous hydrogen peroxide was added, followed by heating at the same temperature for 9 hours. After cooling, the mixture was concentrated under a reduced pressure to about a half amount, and 50 ml of water was added and the mixture concentrated to a half amount (repeated twice). The concentrate was extracted with diethyl ether and washed with an aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. The product was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under a reduced pressure. The residue was purified by separation by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate→methanol:ethyl acetate=15:85) to give 10.7 g of the desired product (yield 91.0%).
