Thionyl bromide → HCID 54431373, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3 g of thionyl bromide was added dropwise with stirring to 2.0 g (10.3 mmoles) of 1-carboxytricyclo[4.3.1.12,5 ]undecane dissolved in 20 ml of anhydrous benzene at room temperature. The mixture was heated under reflux for 1.5 hours. After cooling, the excess thionyl bromide and benzene were distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue obtained was distilled under reduced pressure to afford 2.0 g (yield: 75.5%) of 1-bromocarbonyltricyclo[4.3.1.12,5 ]undecane having a boiling point of 116° C. (1 mmHg).
