Pyrrolidine → HCID 58423954, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-(5-bromo-2-hydroxy-phenyl)-ethanone (10 g, 46.7 mmol), dihydro-2H-pyran-4(3H)-one (9.35 g, 93.45 mmol) and pyrrolidine (6.3 g, 88.8 mmol) in methanol (200 mL) was stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was removed in vacuo, and H2O was added. The resulting solution was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated to give 6-bromo-2′,3′,5′,6′-tetrahydrospiro[chroman-2,4′-pyran]-4-one (15 g, 100%). 1HNMR (CDCl3): 1.74 (m, 2H), (m, 2H), 1.94 (t, 2H), 2.71 (s, 2H), 3.76 (m, 4H), 6.91 (d, 1H), 7.54 (d, 1H), 7.96 (s, 1H).
