Acetic acid, 2-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)-, ethyl ester → HCID 70435233, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 5 ml of methanol was dissolved 0.15 g of 6-formyl-1-(4-hydroxy-2-methylphenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydronicotinic acid, and 0.19 g of ethoxycarbonylmethylenetriphenylphosphorane was added thereto. They were reacted at room temperature for one hour. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by a column chromatography (Wako Silica Gel C-200; eluent: chloroform/ethanol (50:1 by volume) mixture) to obtain 0.06 g of 6-(2-ethoxycarbonylethenyl)-1-(4-hydroxy-2-methylphenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydronicotinic acid having a melting point of 185°-189° C.
