Electric Literature of 26663-77-4, A common heterocyclic compound, 26663-77-4, name is Methyl benzimidazole-5-carboxylate, molecular formula is C9H8N2O2, its 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.
To a solution of methyl 1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylate (0.90 g, 5.1 mmol) in DMF(20 ml) was added NaH (0.25 g, 6.2 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 mm. Then (2-(chloromethoxy)ethyl)trimethylsilane (0.94 g, 5.6 mmol) wasadded and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. When LCMS showed that the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL), washed with H20 (100 mL x 2) and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2504 and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford crude product as an oil, which was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluted with petroleum ether/EtOAc = 1:1) to afford mixture ofmethyl 1 -((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylate and methyl 1- ((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy) methyl)- 1 H-benzo [d] imidazole-6-carboxylate as an oil. LC/MS (m/z): 307 (M+H).
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.
