Ethyl Bromide → 2-Ethoxy-4-nitro-benzonitrile

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of 2-hydroxy-4-nitrobenzonitrile (0.5 g, 3.04 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) is added-potassium carbonate (0.631 g, 4.56 mmol) followed by bromoethane (0.238 ml, 3.19 mmol) and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 5 days. The solvent is removed in vacuo and the crude is partitioned between ethyl acetate (100 ml) and water (100 ml). The organic layer is separated, washed with water (2×100 ml), saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (100 ml) and concentrated in vacuo to afford the titled compound as a pale yellow solid which is used crude in the next step.
