Use | 3-iodo-4-methylbenzoic acid can be used in the preparation of pesticides, fungicides and key pharmaceutical intermediates, in the organic synthesis conversion, the carboxyl group in the structure can be reduced to a hydroxyl group by a tetrahydroaluminum lithium or borane tetrahydrofuran solution, and in addition, the carboxyl group can also be converted to an ester group and an amide group by reacting with an alcohol or an amine compound. The iodine atom in the structure may be subjected to an arylation reaction or an alkylation reaction by coupling. |
synthetic method | methyl 3-iodo-4-methylbenzoate (3G, 109 mmol, 1 equiv.) was dissolved in methanol (30 ml) and sodium hydroxide (1.3G, 327 mmol, 3 equiv.) was carefully added followed by water (15 ml), noting a marked exotherm. The above reaction solution was stirred at room temperature for 14 hours, concentrated in vacuo, then water was added, and the pH of the reaction was adjusted to 3 with concentrated hydrochloric acid, the resulting solid is filtered and dried under vacuum to obtain the target product molecule.
