Extended knowledge of 179897-89-3

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 5-Bromo-2-fluorobenzonitrile, its application will become more common.

Electric Literature of 179897-89-3,Some common heterocyclic compound, 179897-89-3, name is 5-Bromo-2-fluorobenzonitrile, molecular formula is C7H3BrFN, traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route.

5-Bromo-2-(2,2-dimethyl-butoxy)benzonitrile; Sodium hydride (60% oily) (2.0 g, 50.0 mmol) was gradually added to a solution of 5-bromo-2-fluorobenzonitrile (5.0 g, 25.0 mmol) and 2,2-dimethylbutan-1-ol (5.1 g, 50.0 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (100 mL) at 0C. After stirring at room temperature for 15 hours, the reaction mixture was poured into ice water followed by extracting with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated saline solution and then dried. The residue prepared by evaporation of the solvent was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate = 50/1) to give the title compound (6.2 g, 88%) as an oily product.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 5-Bromo-2-fluorobenzonitrile, its application will become more common.
