Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 66777466, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 5′-fluoro-2′-hydroxyacetophenone (5.00 g), 2-bromo-1-cyclohexylethanone (7.98 g) synthesized above and N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL) was added potassium carbonate (13.4 g), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. 1N Hydrochloric acid was added to quench the reaction, 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 (0-20% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the title object compound (5.38 g, 64%) as a pale-yellow solid.
