Participants

Reaction Steps

Under nitrogen atmosphere, 6 mL of THF was added to 1.22 g (2 mmol, 0.6 equivalent) of (BrZnCH2COOEt.THF)2. Under argon atmosphere, a solution of 0.45 g (3.33 mmol) of 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-benzoquinone in 4 mL of THF was added dropwise while stirring at 0˜5° C. The mixture was stirred at 20˜25° C. for 1 hour. 5 mL of 1N hydrochloric acid was added dropwise at 20° C. or lower, followed by dilution with 25 mL of ethyl acetate. Then, the layers were separated. The organic layer was washed successively with 5 mL (×2) of 1N hydrochloric acid, 5 mL of water, 5 mL (×2) of an aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, and 5 mL (×2) of an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution. After cooling, the organic layer was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Concentration under reduced pressure afforded 0.79 g of the desired product (yield 94%).
