Application | 6, 7-dihydro-4 (5H)-benzofuranone is an important pharmaceutical intermediate, which can be prepared by the reaction of 1, 3-cyclohexanedione and chloroacetaldehyde aqueous solution, which can be used to synthesize 5-acetyl -6, 7-dihydro-4 (5H)-benzofuranone. |
preparation | 6,7-dihydro-4 (5H)-benzofuranone synthesis: 1,3-cyclohexanedione (10.0g,89.18mmol) is added to a 250mL round bottom flask, dissolved in 60mL of water, 35mL of 20% sodium hydroxide solution is added under ice bath, and then KI(2.9g,17.4mmol) is added, finally, 16mL of 40% chloroacetaldehyde aqueous solution was slowly added dropwise, and the reaction was carried out at room temperature. After 12 hours, TLC detection showed that the raw materials basically reacted completely. Add 37.5% concentrated hydrochloric acid with mass fraction to adjust to PH = 4, add 100mL of water, extract with petroleum ether (100mL × 4), combine organic phase, wash with saturated salt water (100mL × 3), finally dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and evaporate the solvent to obtain light yellow liquid 7, I .e. 6,7-dihydro-4 (5H)-benzofuranone 10.0g, with a yield of 82%. |
