5-BENZYLOXY-2-BROMOBENZALDEHYDE Usage And Synthesis

Synthesis

Example 396: Synthesis of (1E,6E)-1-(5-benzyloxy-2-bromophenyl)-7-(4-hydroxyphenyl)hepta-1,6-diene-3,5-dione (CU531); (1) Synthesis of 5-benzyloxy-2-bromobenzaldehyde; To 2-bromo-5-hydroxybenzaldehyde (100 mg, 0.50 mmol), potassium carbonate (138 mg, 1.00 mmol) and tetrabutylammonium iodide (18 mg, 0.05 mmol) in a suspension of 1.0 mL of dry N,N-dimethylformamide, benzyl bromide (89 μL, 0.74 mmol) was slowly added at 0 °C. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature, then diluted with ether, washed sequentially with water, saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and brine, and dried over anhydrous MgSO4. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate = 95/5 to 80/20) to afford 5-(benzyloxy)-2-bromobenzaldehyde as a colorless oil (140 mg, 97% yield).
