Diethyl Ether → alpha-Allyl-alpha,3,3-trimethyl-2-norbornane-methanol

참여 물질

반응 단계

The magnesium turnings are placed into a 1 liter, 3 neck reaction flask, followed by 200 cc of anhydrous ether. Approximately 6 cc of allyl chloride is added to initiate formation of the Grignard reagent. When the reaction is initiated, the remaining allyl chloride is added dropwise over a 2 hour period, with moderate reflux. After the addition, reflux is continued for 1 hour; at which time 28.5 g 2-acetyl-3,3-dimethylnorbornane is introduced over a 20 minute period. The reaction is very exothermic during this addition. At the end of the addition, refluxing is continued for 1 hour. The work up is carried out by hydrolyzing with NH4Cl solution, filtering and separating the layers. The organic layer is washed with two 200 cc portions of water, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to give 34 grams of oil which is distilled to give 26 g of product, b.p. 90°-105° C. at 1-2 mm Hg.
