Hydrochloric Acid → 4-Cyclopentyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of 4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (1.5 g), iron (III) acetylacetonate (130 mg), and 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (4 mL) in THF (45 mL) was added a 1 M solution of cyclopentyl magnesium bromide in THF (8.8 mL) at 5° C., followed by stirring at room temperature for 0.5 hours and diluting with diethylether. 1 M hydrochloric acid was slowly added thereto, followed by extraction with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:EtOAc=100:0 to 95:5) to obtain 4-cyclopentyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (367 mg) as a white solid.
