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. 23783-42-8, name is 2,5,8,11-Tetraoxatridecan-13-ol, molecular formula is C9H20O5, 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. Computed Properties of C9H20O5
O-Tosyltetraethyleneglycol Methyl Ether (109) Tetraethyleneglycol monomethyl ether (2.0 g, 9.6 mmol) was combined with pyridine (0.93 mL, 11.5 mmol) in methylene chloride (20 mL) at 0 C. p-Toluenesulfonyl chloride (2.2 g, 11.5 mimol) dissolved in methylene chloride (10 mL) was added dropwise and the reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature as the ice bath thawed. After stirring nine days, the product mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel with water (70 mL). The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with methylene chloride (3*20 mL). The extracts were combined and evaporated. The residue (3.3 g) was chromatographed (silica gel, 4:1 to 3:1 gradient elution, methylene chloride/ethyl acetate) to afford 2.5 g (70%) of compound 109 as an oil. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) delta 1.56 (br s, 411), 2.42 (br s, 2H), 3.34 (br s, 4H), 6.05 (s, 3H), 7.09 (s, 0.5H), 7.26 (s, 0.5H), 7.42 (br s, 2H), 7.70 (br s, 2H), 8.87 (br d, 2H), 9.07 (s, 2H), 9.22 (br s, 1H), 10.51 (s, 1H). CI MS m/z=363 [C16H26O7S+H]+.
With the rapid development of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about 23783-42-8.
