ABSTRACT: Enones allow for both 1,2-addition
and 1,4-addition
of an incoming
nucleophile. In this
of the flask. Rapid cooling with the ice
water bath helped collect more of the
desired product. The yield was very high on
this second step, which can be attributed
Note
EXPERIMENTAL
SECTION
The apparatus was set up
using a 500 mL 3-neck
round bottom flask and a
condenser.
A
thermometer
and
a
dropping
funnel
were
placed in the other two
necks, and an HCL trap
was attached to the top of
the condenser. A heating
blanket
was
placed
between the apparatus
and a heating plate, and a
magnetic stirred rod was
placed in the flask. Pivalic
acid (12 mL) was added to
the flask and heated up to
70 C. Thionyl chloride (24
mL) was placed in the
attached dropping funnel
and slowly added over 30
min. The solution was
refluxed for 90 min and
monitored
with
TLC.
Excess thionyl chloride was
removed
with
vacuum
distillation while heating at
90
C.
Product
was
collected (4.3% yield). To
carry out the esterification,
the same apparatus setup
was used the following
week. 0.56 mL of the
previously
obtained
product was added to the
flask and heated to 105 C.
After
reaching
reflux,
isopropyl alcohol (0.42 mL)
was drop-added by syringe
over 15 min. The flask was
then removed from the
apparatus and immediately
cooled in an ice water bath.
The product was then
collected and extracted
using water (2 mL) in a
separation funnel. Sodium
sulfate was used to dry any
remaining
water.
The
product
was
collected
