反应详情

A mixture of 9.2 g (50 mmol) of 3-bromo-toluene and 5.84 g (50 mmol) of chlorotrimethylsilane in 100 ml of dry ether are added dropwise to 1.2 g (50 mmol) of magnesium turnings in a few milliliters of ether, some crystals of iodine are added to start the reaction. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 20 hours after the end of the addition and then poured into a saturated solution of ammonium chloride (200 ml). The aqueous solution is further extracted with ether, the ethereal extracts are combined, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 4.4 g of a yellowish liquid. Flash chromatography ona silica gel column and elution with petroleum ether give 2.3 g (30%) of the expected 1-methyl-3-trimethylsilyl-benzene as a colorless liquid.
