Trifluoroacetic anhydride → HCID 58137374, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3,4-Diethoxy-6-methylpyridazine 1-oxide (1.44 g) was initially charged in dichloromethane (50 ml) and admixed dropwise at RT with trifluoroacetic anhydride (2.5 ml). After 2.5 h, the mixture was concentrated to dryness and the residue was taken up with ethanol and saturated potassium carbonate solution. After stirring at RT for 4 h, the mixture was concentrated to dryness again and the residue was admixed with water and dichloromethane. Removal of the organic phase was followed by extraction twice more with dichloromethane, and the combined organic phases were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified twice using silica gel with dichloromethane/methanol as the eluent. The product-containing fractions were combined and dried. 716 mg of the desired product were obtained.
