Application | 2,3,4,5-tetramethyl-2-cyclopentenone is an important pharmaceutical intermediate that can be used as a functional material intermediate. It can be prepared by the reaction of ketone with trichloropropoxytitanium and acetaldehyde. |
Preparation | 2,3,4, 5-tetramethyl-2-cyclopentenone synthesis: In a round-bottom flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, 200g(23.2mol) of the starting ketone is added to the dropping funnel and reflux condenser, of which 75% w/w butyl acetate is the solvent, 0.35 molar equivalent of anhydrous magnesium chloride and titanium containing 0.06 molar equivalent of trichloropropoxy titanium complex are catalytic solutions. The resulting suspension was agitated vigorously and heated to 90°C. Then 2 molar equivalents of acetaldehyde were added dropwise within 3 hours at 90°C. The reaction continued for another hour and cooled to 40°C. The reaction mixture was hydrolyzed with an aqueous solution of 10% acetic acid and neutralized with an aqueous solution of 20% potassium carbonate. The resulting organic phase was fractionated directly into a Sulzer packed column in the laboratory to obtain 2,3,4, 5-tetramethyl-2-cyclopentenone. |
