Discovery of 2-Methyl-3-chloroanisole

At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound, 2-Methyl-3-chloroanisole, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.

Synthetic Route of 3260-88-6, As we all know, there are many different methods for the synthesis of a compound, and people can choose the synthesis method that suits their own laboratory according to the actual situation. 3260-88-6 name is 2-Methyl-3-chloroanisole, This compound is widely used in many fields, so it is necessary to find a new synthetic route. The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below.

3-Chloro-2-methylphenol Process Variant b2)-Second Step-Preparation of Compounds of the Formula (I-1) 3.1 g (0.02 mol) of 3-chloro-2-methylanisole are heated in 20 ml of 50% sulphuric acid for 18 hours with reflux. After cooling, the reaction mixture is extracted three times with dichloromethane, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. 3-Chloro-2-methylphenol is obtained as a solid (2.9 g, content by HPLC: 11.7%, 12% of theory).
