Methyl 6-bromohexanoate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Clear colorless to pale yellow liquid

Synthesis

1. Synthesis of methyl 6-bromohexanoate: Dissolve 5.01 g (25.7 mmol) of 6-bromohexanoic acid in 250 mL of methanol and introduce hydrogen chloride gas by vigorous bubbling for 2-3 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at 15-25°C for 3 hours. Upon completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by concentration to give 4.84 g of yellow oily product in 90% yield. The product was characterized by 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 3.58 (3H, s), 3.51 (2H, t), 2.29 (2H, t), 1.78 (2H, pentet), 1.62-1.27 ppm (4H, m).
