2-PHENYLPROPIONIC ACID Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

clear pale yellow to yellow liquid

Uses

2-Phenylpropionic acid is used in the preparation of ibuprofen derivatives for their anti-inflammatory activity. Also used in nucleation inhibitors in Dutch resolution of diastereomers.

Definition

ChEBI: A 2-arylpropionic acid carrying a phenyl group at position 2. It is a metabolite of alpha-methylstyrene (AMS), a volatile hydrocarbon.

Tetrahedron Letters, 21, p. 581, 1980 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(01)85562-3

Synthesis

2-Phenylpropionic acid is prepared:
1) from Benzyl cyanide by Metbylation with Methyl iodide and Sodamide to produce alpha-Phenylpropionitrile, from which the acid is produced by acid hydrolysis.
2) from Acetophenone cyanhydrin with Hydriodic acid. 

Purification Methods

Fractionally distil the acid, or recrystallise it from pet ether (b 40-60o) with strong cooling (see references below). [Beilstein 9 II 348.]
