Benzylamine → (E)-2,4,6-Trimethoxystyryl 4-Methoxy-3-Nitrobenzyl sulfone

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of 4-methoxy-3-nitrobenzyl sulfonylacetic acid (4.5 g, 15.5 mmol) in 30 mL of glacial acetic acid was added 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzaldehyde (3.05 g, 15.5 mmol) and a catalytic amount of benzylamine (0.6 mL). The resulting mixture was heated at reflux temperature for 6 h. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure to yield a gummy material. The gum was triturated with 2-propanol to yield a solid product. The solid product was recrystallized from a mixture of acetic acid and 2-propanol to provide the 2-((E)-2-(4-methoxy-3-nitrobenzylsulfonyl)vinyl)-1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene product in 28% yield. m.p. 186-187° C.
