Reaction Conditions:
with hydrogen bromide in toluene at 70;
Steps:
4.9 2-(Bromomethyl)phenyl]methanol (10)
A solution of 105mg (0.76mmol, 1.00moleq) 1,2-phenylenedimethanol (9) in 20ml of toluene was heated to 70°C. At this temperature, 80μl (0.85mmol, 1.12moleq) of 48% solution of HBr was added dropwise. After 20min, TLC analysis confirmed a presence of product 10 and a small amount of probably bis brominated side product. Reaction mixture was cooled down, neutralized with saturated aq solution of Na2CO3 and extracted with diethyl ether (3×15ml). Combined organic layer was evaporated and resulted mixture purified by FLC (Hex / EA=5 / 1) to afford 80.0mg (0.40mmol, 56%) of desired product 10 as a white solid compound. Novelty: 2-(bromomethyl)phenyl]methanol (10) is described in the literature by its M.P., 1H NMR, IR22 and MS spectra.23 M.p.: 61.0-63.8°C [Et2O], lit: 55°C [hexane].22 (0035) 1H NMR (600MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.43 and 7.39 (2×dd, 2×1H, J(3,4 or 5,6)=7.5Hz, J(3,5 or 4,6)=1.5Hz, H-C(3 and 6)), 7.35 and 7.31 (2×ddd, 2×1H, J(4,5)=7.9Hz, J(3,4 or 5,6)=7.5Hz, J(3,5 or 4,6)=1.5Hz, H-C(4 and 5)), 4.86 and 4.66 (2×s, 2×2H, -CH2OH and CH2Br).
