Application | Ditert-butyl malonate is a diester of malonate. The hydrogen atom on the active methylene group in the malonate diester molecule is easy to react with other groups, so it can carry out alkylation, hydroxylation, amidation and other reactions. It is an important intermediate for the synthesis of medicine, pesticide, dye, perfume and other fine chemicals. |
Preparation | Step 1, malonic acid dichloride: First, 8.0g(76.9 mmol) of malonic acid and 30.0g(0.25 mol) of thionyl chloride are heated at 50°C for 3 days, and then at 60°C for 6 hours. After removing thionyl chloride in a rotary vaporizer, distill the residue. Output: 6.3g(58%), oil, boiling point 43 ℃/ 12 Torr. Step 2: ditert-butyl malonate: at room temperature, drop 19.5g(0.26 mol) of anhydrous tert-butanol in 20 mL of anhydrous N,N-dimethylaniline solution with 6.0 g(0.43 mmol) of anhydrous CHCl3 solution. Subsequently, the solution was heated under reflux for 4 hours, and 40mL 3M sulfuric acid was added to the cooled solution. The aqueous phase was extracted 3 times with 50mL ether. The combined organic phase was washed with 20 mL of water, 20 mL of saturated potassium carbonate solution and 20 mL of saturated sodium chloride solution. The ether phase is dried and filtered by magnesium sulfate. After evaporating the solvent, the residue is distilled. Output: 6.0g(62%),bp 93 ℃/ 10Torr. |
