Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of methyl 2-[(2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)hydrazono]-4-methoxy-3-oxobutanoate (6.27 g, 15.9 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (60 mL) was refluxed for 3 h. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with AcOEt. The extract was washed with water and brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with AcOEt and recrystallized from MeOH to give the title compound (3.77 g, 59% yield) as off-white crystals: mp 160-162° C.; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ ppm 3.90 (3H, s), 3.97 (3H, s), 7.36-7.41 (1H, m), 7.64-7.70 (2H, m), 7.73 (1H, d, J=2.6 Hz). Anal. Calcd for C13H10FIN2O4: C, 38.64; H, 2.49; N, 6.93. Found: C, 38.68; H, 2.59; N, 6.98.
