Sodium Iodide → HCID 15486992, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Reflux the distilled chloromethyl(dimethyl)furylsilane (20 g, 114.5 mmol) in butanone (200 mL) containing sodium iodide (17.35 g, 116 mmol) for 4 h. GC/MS shows that the reaction is complete. Cool to room temperature and filter sodium chloride. Evaporate and redissolve in ethyl acetate. Wash with water (3×), then wash with saturated sodium chloride (3'). Dry and evaporate to obtain a yellow liquid. Distill the yellow liquid in a kugelrohr and collect iodomethyl(dimethyl)furylsilane between 90° C.--95° C. as a clear pink oil (26.8 g).
