Synthetic Route of 2807-30-9, 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. 2807-30-9, name is 2-Propoxyethanol. A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below.
A 500 ml, round-bottom flask equipped with a 10-tray Oldershaw column and decanting head, thermometer, and a connecting tube with stopcock was charged with 126 grams (1.0 mole) of 3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid, 99 grams (0.95 mole) of 2-propoxyethanol, and 100 ml of toluene. The reaction mass was stirred and brought to reflux. Then 1.1 grams of titanium tetrabutoxide was added via the connecting tube. The temperature of the reaction mass was slowly increased to 200 C. and held at this temperature while removing water and solvent overhead. After a reaction time of 8 hours, the product was cooled and washed with 50 ml of dilute phosphoric acid (10 weight percent in water) and filtered to remove the titanium salts. The organic layer was separated from the water layer, and the organic layer was successively washed with 50 ml portions of a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and with water. Distillation of the crude product under vacuum through a 12-cm Vigreux column gave 152 grams (75% yield) of 2-propoxyethyl 3-cyclohexenecarboxylate (b.p. 88-90 C. at 2.0 mm Hg) with a chromatographically analyzed purity exceeding 98%.
At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound,2807-30-9, 2-Propoxyethanol, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.
