Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
A reactant used in the preparation of selective inhibitors. In unsymmetrical Ullman reaction between methyl 5bromovanillate (II) and methyl 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzoate (III) yielded all the three possible dicarbomethoxy-dibenzo-pdioxms which were separated by repeated chromatography over silica gel. A phosphorus- and bromine-containing bifunctional monomer has been prepared from bis(chloromethyl)methylphosphine oxide and the sodium salt of methyl 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzoate. | [Synthesis]
The general procedure for the synthesis of methyl 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzoate from methanol and 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzoic acid is as follows:
1. Preparation of intermediate T3.1 (methyl 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzoate):
- Under stirring conditions, 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (50.0 g, 231 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (300 mL).
- To the above solution was slowly added cold sulfuric acid solution (2.50 mL, 47 mmol).
- The reaction mixture was heated to 80 °C and the progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC).
- After 16.5 h of reaction, the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure.
- The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (EtOAc).
- The organic phase was sequentially washed twice with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), once with brine and then dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate.
- After filtration, the organic solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure to give the intermediate T3.1 as a white solid in 100% yield, which can be used in the next reaction without further purification. | [References]
