use | 2,3-dimethylbromobenzene is an organic chemical substance and a useful synthetic and pharmaceutical intermediate. It is used as a reagent for the synthesis of vannipvir. 2, 3-dimethylbromobenzene can also be used to synthesize various piperidine derivatives, such as 4-arylpiperidine and cinnamyl piperidine, 5-HT2C agonists and PAR1 antagonists, respectively. |
Application example | 1. is used to synthesize veterinary drug anesthetic dipromididine hydrochloride 2. is used to synthesize medetomidine intermediate |
production method | add 106g(1mol) of o-xylene and 107mL(1.97mol) of 98% concentrated sulfuric acid into a 3L four-mouth bottle equipped with stirring, reflux tube and thermometer, then stir and heat at 100 ℃ for reaction for 1.5h, and cool to room temperature. After adding 1500mL of water and stirring for dissolution, it was neutralized to pH 7 with 473g of alkali solution of hydrated barium hydroxide and 750mL of water under stirring. Filtering while hot, pouring the filtrate into a 3L three-mouth bottle, adding 192g(1.2mol) of bromine, 200g of barium bromide and 700mL of water at 50~60 ℃ under stirring, and stirring at 50~60 ℃ for 15h. Then cooling, filtering, washing with water 200mL × 2, vacuum drying, 3-bromo-o-xylene sulfonate barium salt about 231g, the yield is 69%. |
