application | 6-bromocaproic acid is a very important pharmaceutical intermediate, which is widely used in the preparation of medicine and veterinary drugs. 6-Bromocaproic acid can be obtained from ε-caprolactone through ring opening with hydrogen bromide. |
Prepare | 500 ml of three-neck bottle, install a thermometer, stirrer, add the raw materials ε-caprolactone (1 mol, 114g), n-hexane (200 ml), and then start stirring. Dry hydrogen bromide gas (1.1 mol, 89g) was introduced and the reaction temperature was controlled to be 20 ℃ ~ 30 ℃. After the hydrogen bromide gas is introduced, it is stirred at this temperature for another 6 hours. Then cool to 0~10 ℃, stir for 3 hours, and a large number of crystals are formed. Filtration to obtain light yellow 6-bromocaproic acid solid, weight 183 grams, 95% yield, 99.2% purity (gas phase color analysis). |
