Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 57615034, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1,2-dimethoxyethane (10 mL) suspension of 0.02 g of tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) were added 0.11 g of 10% (w/w) tri(tert-butyl)phosphine/hexane, 1.76 g of cesium carbonate, 0.50 g of 5-bromobenzothiophene and 0.45 g of diethyl malonate, which was then refluxed for 2 hours. To the reaction mixture were added water and ethyl acetate, followed by adjustment to pH2 using 2 mol/L hydrochloric acid. The organic layer was separated, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, followed by distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was purified using silica gel column chromatography (eluent; hexane:ethyl acetate=10:1) to provide 0.69 g of diethyl 2-(1-benzothiophen-5-yl)malonate as white solid form.
