Triphenylphosphine → HCID 57965599, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Diethyl azodicarboxylate (1.29 g, 7.41 mmol, 1.3 Eq.) was added to a stirred solution of 1-(2-Chloro-phenyl)-ethanol (893 mg, 5.70 mmol, 1.0 Eq.), triphenylphosphine (1.94 g, 7.41 mmol, 1.3 Eq.) and 3-hydroxythiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester (1.23 g, 5.70 mmol, 1.0 Eq.) in anhydrous THF (20 mL) at 0° C. under nitrogen and the reaction allowed to warm to ambient temperature overnight. The crude reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and purified by column chromatography (10% EtOAc/Petroleum ether) to give the sub-title compound as a white solid (1.94 g, 5.6 mmol, 93%); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.71 (3H, d), 3.89 (3H, s), 3.95 (3H, s), 5.80 (1H, q), 7.20-7.32 (3H, m), 7.39 (1H, d), 7.66 (1H, d).
