4-Iodobenzaldehyde → HCID 10613729, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Samples of 4-iodobenzaldehyde (1.18 g, 5.00 mmol), 7 (950 mg, 5.00 mmol), CuI (52 mg, 270 μmol) and Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (23 mg, 33 μmol) were placed in a Schlenk flask. The flask was evacuated via vacuum pump for 3 min and then the flask was backflushed with argon for 3 min. The process of evacuation and flushing was repeated 3 times. At this point the argon flow rate was increased and the threaded stopcock was removed. Deareated THF (5.0 mL) and DIEA (5.0 mL) were added in succession to the flask by gastight syringe. The threaded stopcock was replaced, the argon flow rate was reduced and the flask was immersed in an oil bath thermostated at 40° C. The reaction was stopped after 40 h. The mixture was then filtered and evaporated. The resulting orange-brown solid was chromatographed (silica, CH2Cl2/hexanes, 2:3, then 1:1, then 3:2) to afford yellowish-white crystals. Recrystallization (ethyl acetate/heptane) gave 1.30 g (88.2%) of white crystals. mp 128–129° C.; 1H NMR δ 2.49 (s, 3H), 4.07 (s, 2H), 7.25, 7.43 (AA′BB′, 2×2H), 7.59, 7.79 (AA′BB′, 2×2H), 9.95 (s, 1H); 13C NMR δ 30.9, 33.9, 89.5, 93.9, 122.1, 129.8, 130.1, 130.2, 132.7, 132.7, 136.1, 139.5, 192.0, 195.4; FAB-MS obsd 294.0717, calcd exact mass 294.0715; Anal.
