As we all know, there are many different methods for the synthesis of a compound, and people can choose the synthesis method that suits their own laboratory according to the actual situation. 89-95-2, name is 2-Methylbenzyl alcohol, molecular formula is C8H10O, The compound is widely used in many fields, so it is necessary to find a new synthetic route. The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below. Quality Control of 2-Methylbenzyl alcohol
General procedure: To a mixture of the benzyl alcohol (1 mmol)and formic acid (3 mmol); 0.1 g tribromoisocyanuricacid (0.3 mmol) was added. The reaction mixturewas stirred at room temperature for 5 min. Aftercompletion of the reaction (TLC), dichloromethane(10 mL) was added to the reaction mixture andfiltered. The product was extracted with H2O (3¡Á10mL), and the organic layer was dried over anhydrousNa2SO4salt. Evaporation of the solvent underreduced pressure to give the almost pure product.
With the rapid development of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about 89-95-2.
