Benzaldehyde → HCID 85448466, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1A (114 mmol) in MeOH (200 mL) was added NaOH (18.2 g, 445 mmol). The reaction was exothermic. After cooled to room temperature, benzaldehyde (14.5 g, 137 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred overnight under N2. TLC monitored the reaction. After the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was poured into ice-water under stirring. The solids precipitated out and were collected by filtration, and dried to give 1B (26 g).
