2-Aminobenzyl alcohol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white to light yellow crystal powder.

Uses

2-Aminobenzyl alcohol was used in the synthesis of ethyl 2-hydroxymethylcarbanilate.

Application

A double dehydrogenative coupling of 2-aminobenzyl alcohol with secondary aryl alcohols furnishes 2-arylquinolines in good to excellent yields under mild and sustainable conditions. The reaction is catalyzed by the molecularly defined phosphine-free nickel complex.

General Description

2-Aminobenzyl alcohol is oxidatively cyclised with an array of ketones in dioxane at 80°C in the presence of a ruthenium catalyst and KOH to give corresponding quinolines. It undergoes oxidation catalyzed by heterotrimetallic RuMnMn species on the hydrotalcite surface in the presence of O₂ to yield 2-aminobenzaldehyde.

storage

Keep Cold. Air Sensitive. Light Sensitive.
