Trimethylsilylacetylene → HCID 67187907, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-bromo-3-(2-methoxy-1,1-dimethyl-ethyl)-benzene (1.62 g, 6.69 mmol) and trimethylsilylacetylene (1.2 mL, 8.7 mmol, 1.3 eq.) in MeCN-Et3N (50 mL, 7:3) was added Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (0.23 g, 0.33 mmol. 0.05 eq.), CuI (0.038 g, 0.2 mmol, 0.03 eq.) and the mixture refluxed for 16 h. After cooling to ambient temperature and concentration under reduced pressure the residue was chromatographed (EtOAc-hexane, 2:98) to obtain 1.54 g (89%) of the desired product. NMR (DMSO-d6): 7.28-7.00 (m, 4H), 3.16 (s, 2H), 2.98 (s, 3H), 1.00 (s, 6H), 0.1 (s, 9H). MS (DCI): 261 (M+1).
