Extracurricular laboratory: Synthetic route of 4-Bromoisatin

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.

Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 20780-72-7, name is 4-Bromoisatin, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., Formula: C8H4BrNO2

General procedure: 4-Bromoisatin (1 eq) was added to a solution of the potassium trifluoroborate salt (1.4 eq), K3P04 (3.6 eq) and degassed solvent. The reaction mixture was degassed and Pd(PPh3)2C12or Pd(dppf)2C12 (0.1 eq) was added. The reaction vessel was sealed and heated by microwave irradiation (Biotage Initiator) for 4 h at 130°C. The reaction mixture was cooled to rt, diluted with EtOAc (-10 mL/mmol substrate) and filtered through Celite®. The organic solution was washed with brine (-10 mL/mmol substrate) and the resulting aqueous layer was further extracted with EtOAc (2 x). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered andconcentrated in vacuo to give the crude product which was purified as specified below.
