Isopentyltriphenylphosphonium bromide → 2-(3,4-Difluorophenyl)-4-(6-methyl-3-heptenyl)-5-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-3(2h)-pyridazinone

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of isoamyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (414 mg, 1 mmol) and potassium t-butoxide (112 mg, 1 mmol) in toluene (25 mL) was refluxed for 30 minutes and then cooled to room temperature. The crude aldehyde was added and the mixture was refluxed for 14 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and was washed with water, 10% citric acid, brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by column chromatography (silica gel, 1:1 hexanes-ethyl acetate) provided the title compound as an oil (yield: 120 mg, 13%o) 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 0.74 (d, J=7 Hz, 6H), 1.44 (m, 1H), 1.70 (t, J=7 Hz, 2H), 2.22 (m, 2H), 2.54 (m, 2H); 3.30 (s, 3H), 5.29 (m, 2H), 7.51 (m, 1H), 7.63 (m, 1H), 7.74 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H), 7.82 (m, 1H), 8.02 (s, 1H), 8.10 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H). MS (APCI+) nmz 473 (M+H)+ and (APCI−) m/z 471 (M−H)−, m/z 507 (M+Cl)−. Anal. calc. for C25H26F2N2O3S: C, 63.54; H, 5.54; N, 5.92. Found: C, 63.74; H, 5.67; N, 5.58.
