Ammonium Chloride → HCID 61088924, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2,5-dimethylthiophene-3-carbaldehyde (562 mg) synthesized above in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) was added dropwise 1.0M cyclohexylmagnesium bromide-tetrahydrofuran solution (6.02 mL) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred for 1 hr. Saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution was added to quench the reaction, tetrahydrofuran was evaporated using evaporator, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=1:4, volume ratio) to give the title compound (643 mg, 72%) as a white solid.
