Continuously updated synthesis method about Cinnamyl chloride

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route Cinnamyl chloride, its application will become more common.

Reference of 2687-12-9,Some common heterocyclic compound, 2687-12-9, name is Cinnamyl chloride, molecular formula is C9H9Cl, traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route.

General procedure: Distilled H2O in a three-necked roundbottom flask ispurged with nitrogen for 30 minutes. PdCl2 and KCl aresubsequently added to the flask and the solution is stirred atroom temperature for 1 h. Then, optionally substituted(R4)-allyl chloride is added and the resulting reactionmixture is stirred at room temperature overnight (18-20 irs).The reaction is extracted with chloroform, and the aqueouslayer washed with chloroform three times. The organiclayers are combined, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product is recrystallised fromchloroform and methyl tert-butyl ether, and the resultingsolid is isolated by filtration and dried in vacuo; PdCl2 (590 mg, 3.33 mmol); KCl (473 mg, 6.67 mmol); cinnamyl chloride (1.39 mL, 9.99 mmol); H2O (83 mL). Thedimer is obtained as a yellow solid.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route Cinnamyl chloride, its application will become more common.
