Ethers acetyl chloride

The oxygen of ketone and aldehyde groups is readily replaced by halogen under the influence of phosphorus trichloride or pentachloride the reaction may be carried out with or without a solvent solvents commonly employed are chloroform, benzene, petroleum ether, acetyl chloride and phosphorus oxychloride. 

Anhydrobisdibenzylsilicanediol is formed when 2 mols. of dibenzylsilicanediol condense with loss of 1 mol of water. Though the yield is not good, the best method of preparation is as follows Dibenzylsilicanediol (3 grams) is dissolved in 20 c.c. of dry ether, acetyl chloride (30 drops) added, and the solution in a beaker is kept in a desiccator over potassium hydroxide for three hours. It is then connected to the pump and evacuated to remove most of the acid chloride. After six hours, crystals of termolecular silicone usually appear on the surface. The solution is then poured into excess of cooled, dilute ammonium hydroxide and shaken. After extraction with ether and evaporation, the oily residue is treated with a little alcohol, which precipitates the silicone. The filtered alcoholic solution is diluted with water, and vigorous rubbing of the beaker with a glass-rod causes... 

The lasl3 column in Table 4 gives the separate word used when the compound is named by the radico-functional method (see paragraph (d), p. 43) the preceding word or, for bivalent groups, two words are in radical form, as in ethyl alcohol, ethyl methyl ether, acetyl chloride. 

Acyl halides, both aliphatic and aromatic, react with the sodium derivative, but the product depends largely on the solvent used. Thus acetyl chloride reacts with the sodium derivative (E) suspended in ether to give mainly the C-derivative (t) and in pyridine solution to give chiefly the O-derivative (2). These isomeric compounds can be readily distinguished, because the C-derivative (1) can still by enolisation act as a weak acid and is therefore... 

Method A. In a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask, fitted with a reflux condenser attached to a gas trap (Fig. II, 13, 8), place 59 g. of succinic acid and 117-5 g. (107-5 ml.) of redistilled acetyl chloride. Reflux the mixture gently upon a water bath until all the acid dissolves (1-2 hours). Allow the solution to cool undisturbed and finally cool in ice. Collect the succinic anhydride, which separates in beautiful crystals, on a Buchner or sintered glass funnel, wash it with two 40 ml. portions of anhydrous ether, and dry in a vacuum desiccator. The yield of succinic anhydride, m.p. 118-119°, is 47 g. 

Reduction of a nitro compound to a primary amine. In a 50 ml. round-bottomed or conical flask fitted with a reflux condenser, place 1 g. of the nitro compound and 2 g. of granulated tin. Measure out 10 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and add it in three equal portions to the mixtiue shake thoroughly after each addition. When the vigorous reaction subsides, heat under reflux on a water bath until the nitro compound has completely reacted (20-30 minutes). Shake the reaction mixture from time to time if the nitro compound appears to be very insoluble, add 5 ml. of alcohol. Cool the reaction mixture, and add 20-40 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution imtil the precipitate of tin hydroxide dissolves. Extract the resulting amine from the cooled solution with ether, and remove the ether by distillation. Examine the residue with regard to its solubility in 5 per cent, hydrochloric acid and its reaction with acetyl chloride or benzene-sulphonyl chloride. 

A mixture of 0.30 mol of the tertiairy acetylenic alcohol, 0.35 mol of acetyl chloride (freshly distilled) and 0.35 mol of /V/V-diethylaniline was gradually heated with manual swirling. At 40-50°C an exothermic reaction started and the temperature rose in a few minutes to 120°C. It was kept at that level by occasional cooling. After the exothermic reaction had subsided, the mixture was heated for an additional 10 min at 125-130°C, during which the mixture was swirled by hand so that the salt that had been deposited on the glass wall was redissolved. After cooling to below 50°C a mixture of 5 ml of 36% HCl and 200 ml of ice-water was added and the obtained solution was extracted with small portions of diethyl ether. The ethereal solutions were washed with water and subsequently dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by evaporation in a water-pump vacuum... 

The synthesis of 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone [89-84-9] (21) by acylation reactions of resorcinol has been extensively studied. The reaction is performed using acetic anhydride (104), acetyl chloride (105), or acetic acid (106). The esterification of resorcinol by acetic anhydride followed by the isomerization of the diacetate intermediate has also been described in the presence of zinc chloride (107). Alkylation of resorcinol can be carried out using ethers (108), olefins (109), or alcohols (110). The catalysts which are generally used include sulfuric acid, phosphoric and polyphosphoric acids, acidic resins, or aluminum and iron derivatives. 2-Chlororesorcinol [6201-65-1] (22) is obtained by a sulfonation—chloration—desulfonation technique (111). 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene [533-73-3] (23) is obtained by hydroxylation of resorcinol using hydrogen peroxide (112) or peracids (113). 

Acetophenone. Acetophenone [98-86-2] (methyl phenyl ketone) is a colorless Hquid that forms laminar crystals at low temperature (mp 20°C). It has a characteristic sweet orange blossom odor, and is soluble in alcohols and ethers. It is found in nature in oil of casatoreum, obtained from beavers oil of labdanum, recovered from plants and in buds of balsam poplar. It can be prepared by the Friedel-Crafts reaction (qv) of acetyl chloride with benzene in the presence of aluminum chloride however, this route is of Htde commercial significance. 

Triphenylmethyl chloride (trityl chloride) [76-83-5] M 278.9, m 111-112 . Crystd from isooctane. Also crystd from 5 parts of pet ether (b 90-100°) and 1 part of acetyl chloride using 1.8g of solvent per g of chloride. Dried in a desiccator over soda lime and paraffin wax.

The six-position may be functionalized by electrophilic aromatic substitution. Either bromination (Br2/CH2Cl2/-5°) acetylation (acetyl chloride, aluminum chloride, nitrobenzene) " or chloromethylation (chloromethyl methyl ether, stannic chloride, -60°) " affords the 6,6 -disubstituted product. It should also be noted that treatment of the acetyl derivative with KOBr in THF affords the carboxylic acid in 84% yield. The brominated crown may then be metallated (n-BuLi) and treated with an electrophile to form a chain-extender. To this end, Cram has utilized both ethylene oxide " and dichlorodimethyl-silane in the conversion of bis-binaphthyl crowns into polymer-bound resolving agents. The acetylation/oxidation sequence is illustrated in Eq. (3.54). 

Isotope labeling by derivative formation with deuterated reagents is useful for the preparation of analogs such as dg-acetonides, da-acetates, da-methyl ethers, dg-methyl esters, etc. The required reagents are either commercially available or can be easily prepared. (The preparation of da-methyl iodide is described in section IX-F. Various procedures are reported in the literature for the preparation of dg-acetone, da-diazometh-ane57.i63.i73 and da-acetyl chloride. ) These reactions can be carried out under the usual conditions and they need no further discussion. A convenient procedure has been reported for the da-methylation of sterically hindered or hydrogen bonded phenolic hydroxyl functions by using da-methyl iodide and sodium hydroxide in dimethyl sulfoxide solution. This procedure should be equally applicable to the preparation of estradiol da-methyl ether derivatives. 

Dehydrochlorination of bis(tnfluoromethylthio)acetyl chloride with calcium oxide gives bis(trifluoromethylthio)ketene [5] (equation 6) Elimination of hydrogen chloride or hydrogen bromide by means of tetrabutylammonium or potassium fluoride from vinylic chlorides or bromides leads to acetylenes or allenes [6 (equation 7) Addition of dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 ether raises the yields of potassium fluoride-promoted elimination of hydrogen bromide from (Z)-P-bromo-p-ni-trostyrene in acetonitrile from 0 to 53-71 % In dimethyl formamide, yields increase from 28-35% to 58-68%... 

More recently the acylation of aldehyde enamines has been reinvestigated (75) and shown to proceed normally when the enamine is added to the acid chloride. The morpholine enamine of isobutyraldehyde (98), on being added to an ether solution of acetyl chloride, afforded the iminium salt (99), from which the ketoaldehyde (100) was obtained in 66% yield by hydrolysis (75). 

Interestingly, phase-transfer catalysts including crown ethers have been used to promote enantioselective variations of Darzens condensation. Toke and coworkers showed that the novel 15-crown-5 catalyst derived from d-glucose 33 could promote the condensation between acetyl chloride 31 and benzaldehyde to give the epoxide in 49% yield and 71% A modified cinchoninium bromide was shown to act as an effective phase transfer catalyst for the transformation as well. ... 

Bruce and Sutcliffe obtained l-acetyl-2-methyl-3-phenylindole (123) by the action of acetyl chloride on 2-methyl-3-pheiiylindole magnesium iodide in ether.These authors were able to obtain l-benzoyl-2-benzyl-3-phenylindole (124) but not l-acetyl-2-benzyl-3-phenylindole (125) from 2-benzyl-3-phenylindole magnesium iodide by analogous procedures.3-Acetyl-2-phenylindole (126) and 3-propionyl-2-pheny]indole (127) have recently been prepared in fair yield by the acylation of 2-phenylindole magnesium iodide with acetyl and propionyl chloride, respectively. Le ete obtained a mixture of l-acetyl-3-ethylindole (128) and 2-acetyl-3-ethylindole (129) by the interaction of acetyl chloride with 3-ethylindole magnesium iodide in ether. 

Esters of diphenylacetic acids with derivatives of ethanol-amine show mainly the antispasmodic component of the atropine complex of biologic activities. As such they find use in treatment of the resolution of various spastic conditions such as, for example, gastrointestinal spasms. The prototype in this series, adiphenine (47), is obtained by treatment of diphenyl acetyl chloride with diethylaminoethanol. A somewhat more complex basic side chain is accessible by an interesting rearrangement. Reductive amination of furfural (42) results in reduction of the heterocyclic ring as well and formation of the aminomethyltetrahydro-furan (43). Treatment of this ether with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid leads to the hydroxypiperidine (45), possibly by the intermediacy of a carbonium ion such as 44. Acylation of the alcohol with diphenylacetyl chloride gives piperidolate (46). ... 

Treatment of Decalin with acetyl chloride and aluminum chloride in ethylene chloride as solvent gives a complex mixture of products as shown (15). By variation of the reaction parameters, however, it is possible to maximize the yield of the remarkable reaction product, 10 j3-vinyl-/m j-Decalin l/8,r oxide (5). This vinyl ether undoubtedly... 

Into a stirred, cooled (10°-15°C) solution of 26.2 grams (0.1 mol) of 2-amino-5-chlorobenzo-phenone (3-oxime in 150 ml of dioxane were introduced in small portions 12.4 grams (0.11 mol) of chloracetyl chloride and an equivalent amount of 3 N sodium hydroxide. The chlor acetyl chloride and sodium hydroxide were introduced alternately at such a rate so as to keep the temperature below 15°C and the mixture neutral or slightly alkaline. The reaction was completed after 30 minutes. The mixture was slightly acidified with hydrochloric acid, diluted with water and extracted with ether. The ether extract was dried and concentrated in vacuo. Upon the addition of ether to the oily residue, the product, 2-chloroacetamido-5-chlorobenzophenone (3-oxime, crystallized in colorless prisms melting at 161°-162°C. 

To a solution of 5 mmol of 1,3-diphcnyl 3-[(S )-2-mcthoxymethyl-l-pyrrolidinyl]-2-propenyl[lithium in 10 mL of tort-butyl methyl ether (prepared according to Section D. 1.1.1.2.2.3.) at 0°C. 6.25 mmol of the aldehyde (and eventually 6.25 mmol of lithium halogenide in 27 mL of leri-butyl methyl ether) are added dropwise. Stirring is continued for 2 h and 0.39 g (5.0 mmol) of acetyl chloride are added. After 2 h stirring at r.t., 10 mL of the solvent, 50 mL of diethyl ether and 10 mL of 2 N aq hydrochloric acid are added and stirring is continued for 2 h at 20 C. The organic layer is extracted with three 20 mL-portions of water and the aqueous solutions are reextracted with diethyl ether. The combined aqueous solutions are dried over Na,S04, concentrated in vacuum and the residue distilled to yield a mixture of xyn- and on/i-ketones >90% ee, determined by H-NMR with Pr(hfc)3. 

A solution of 2-methyl-l-(trimethylsilyloxy)cyclohex-l-ene (10 mmol) in dichloromethane (8 ml) was added dropwise over 15 min with stirring to acetyl chloride (10 mmol) and TiCl4 (10 mmol) in dichloromethane (15 ml) at -78 °C. After 1 h at -78 °C, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature over 2h. It was then diluted with ether (20ml), and poured into saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (50 ml). Normal work-up, followed by chromatography on silica gel, gave the /1-diketone (9.1 mmol, 91%). 

All solvents used for general applications were of reagent grade. For special purposes, purification of solvents was effected using standard procedures. All other reagents were used as supplied commercially except as noted. A solution of chloromethyl methyl ether (6 mmole/mL) in methyl acetate was prepared by adding acetyl chloride (141.2 g, 1.96 mol) to a mixture of dimethoxy methane (180 mL, 2.02 mol) and anhydrous methanol (5.0 mL, 0.12 mol).20 The solution was diluted with 300 mL of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane and used as a stock solution for the chloromethylation experiments. 

In a 2-1. flask equipped with a reflux condenser, mercury-sealed stirrer, and a dropping funnel are placed 147 ml. (114 g., 1.5 moles) of ferf.-butyl alcohol (Note 1), 212 ml. (202 g., 1.67 moles) of dimethylaniline, and 200 ml. of dry ether. The solution is heated to refluxing, and 113 ml. (124 g., 1.58 moles) of acetyl chloride is run into the stirred solution at such a rate that moderate refluxing continues after the source of heat is removed. When approximately two-thirds of the acetyl chloride has been added, dimethylaniline hydrochloride begins to crystallize and the mixture refluxes very vigorously. An ice bath is applied immediately, and, after refluxing ceases, the remainder of the acetyl chloride is added. Finally, the mixture is heated for 1 hour on a water bath. The mixture is cooled to room tempera-...
