Application | p-methylphenylacetic acid is a kind of phenylacetic acid compounds, phenylacetic acid compounds are important fine chemical intermediates, widely used in medicine, pesticides, spices, dyes and other fields. In the aspect of fine chemicals, acids with different substituents are important substrates for chemical experiments, that is, important intermediates for the synthesis of esters and amides, and also important substrates for the reduction to alcohols and aldehydes, which play a vital role. |
preparation | n-butyl lithium (2.4mL,2.5mol/L,1.2 eq.) add Dropwise to a solution of 4-methylphenylacetylene (580.8mg,1.0 equiv) in tetrahydrofuran (15mL) for 1H, followed by isopropanol-cytanol borate (1.2mL,1.2 equiv) add Dropwise to the mixed solution, continue the reaction for 2H, add 1, 4-dioxane solution of hydrogen chloride (1.9mL,4m indioxane,1.5 eq) to quench, and the reaction is warmed to room temperature, after rotary evaporation of the solvent, the solvent was prepared into acetone solution (0.3M), then potassium peroxymonosulfonate solution (0.5M,4.6107g,1.5 eq) was added, and the mixture was transferred to 50 ° C. And stirred for 12h, separation and Purification of p-methylphenylacetic Acid Purity was 74% 555.7mg. The data of hydrogen spectrum and carbon spectrum are as follows: 1H NMR(400MHz,CDCl3) = 10.75(br s,1H),7.19(q,J = 8.2Hz,4H),3.64(s,2H),2.37(s,3H);13C NMR(101MHz,CDCl3) * 178.52,137.11,130.32,129.45,129.35,40.78,21.19. |
