反应详情

A mixture of 4-hydroxy-3-nitro-benzaldehyde (5.0 g, 29.9 mmol), 1,3-propanediol (3.4 g, 44.9 mmol) and 0.1 g of p-toluene sulfonic acid in 100 mL of toluene is warmed to reflux. The water generated is removed by a Dean-Stark trap. After 2 hours, the reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature and extracted with 2×100 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate followed by 100 mL of brine. Drying over sodium sulfate and evaporation of the solvent gives 5.6 g (83% yield) of 2-[4-hydroxy-3-nitro-phenyl]-1,3-dioxane oil.
