Application | ethyl 2-cyclohexanone formate is a brown oily liquid, it is obtained by extracting hydrogen with sodium hydrogen and then reacting with diethyl carbonate. It has been reported in the literature that it can be used to prepare a decabromodiphenyl ether labeled with radioactive carbon -14 using ethyl 2-cyclohexanone formate. |
preparation | add diethyl carbonate (1.2 mL, mol) and ML of dry tetrahydrofuran to a ML three-necked flask, naH (60%,63G, 1.6mol) was added with stirring and the reaction was refluxed for 1h before the dropwise addition of cyclohexanone (50ml, 0.48mol) in THF (50ml) was started over about 0.5h. Reflux was continued for 1.5h after the addition was completed. After cooling, it was adjusted to Neutral with 3N hydrochloric acid, then poured into brine and extracted with dichloromethane (75ml x 3). The organic layer was dried and distilled under reduced pressure to give a brown oily liquid (66G, yield 80%) as crude ethyl 2-cyclohexanone formate, which was directly used for the next reaction. |
