Potassium Fluoride → 4-Phenyl-6-[(z)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)vinyl]-1,2-dihydroxybenzene

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 24 (0.05 g, 0.082 mmol) in methanol:dimethylformamide 1:1 (2 mL), acetic acid was added (0.025 mL, 0.41 mmol) followed by potassium fluoride (0.024 mg, 0.41 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 6 hours then diluted with tertbutylmethyl ether (50 mL) and washed with water (10 mL) then brine (50 mL), then dried over sodium sulphate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give a crude which was purified by column (cyclohexane:AcOEt 6:4+1% AcOH) to give 0.097 g of ZSB-80:
