m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 59678222, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-(2,6-diethyl-phenyl)-4-isopropoxy-3-(5-isopropyl-2-methyl-phenoxymethyl)-2-methyl-pyridine (250 mg, 0.56 mmol) and 3-chloroperoxy-benzoic acid (77%, 150 mg, 0.67 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The mixture is diluted with CH2Cl2 (20 mL) and washed with saturated Na2CO3, brine dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified on PTLC (1:1 hexane EtOAc) to give 6-(2,6-diethyl-phenyl)-4-isopropoxy-3-(5-isopropyl-2-methyl-phenoxymethyl)-2-methyl-pyridine 1-oxide. 1H NMR (CDCl3) 7.90 (m, 1H), 7.50-7.04 (m, 3H), 6.90-6.71 (m, 3H), 5.18 (m, 2H), 4.55 (m, 1H), 3.95 (m, 1H), 2.78 (s, 3H), 2.52-2.20 (m, 4H), 2.20 (s, 3H), 1.35 (d, 6H), 1.25 (d, 6H), 1.08 (t, 6H).
