Acetone → HCID 11604403, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a 1,000 ml two-necked flask equipped with a refluxing condenser, 10.0 g of 4,4′-(9H-fluorene-9,9-diyl)diphenol (Sigma-Aldrich), 6.17 ml of allyl bromide (Sigma-Aldrich), 23.68 g of K2CO3, and 500 ml of acetone were charged and mixed at room temperature. Then, the reaction temperature was set to 80° C., and the homogeneous mixture thus obtained was refluxed overnight. After finishing the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and was filtered using Celite. The solvent was evaporated to obtain a coarse product. A target product was extracted from the coarse product using ethyl acetate, washed three times using water, and dried using MgSO4. MgSO4 was filtered off, and solvents were removed by using an evaporator to obtain an intermediate product (11) of 9,9-bis(4-(allyloxy)phenyl)-9H-fluorene. The reaction scheme of the 1st step and the NMR data of the intermediate product (11) thus obtained are as follows.
