The major producers of chemicals have been the Europe, Japan and China. Due to the growing call for a cleaner, greener environment, people will have to find innovative ways to maintain their relevance. Here is a compound 1546-78-7, name is 4-Hydroxy-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine. This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows. name: 4-Hydroxy-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine
Add 6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-4-ol (1.5 g, 9.15 mmol) and oxalyl chloride (2.3 mL, 22.9 mmol) to EtOAc (15 mL), then add 5 drops of DMF. Heat the mixture to reflux for 2 hrs. After reaction, partition between EtOAc and brine, separate the organic layer; dry the organic layer over anhydrous Na2S04. Transfer the organic solution to a sealed tube, add a solution of NH3 in methanol (7M, lOmL), seal the tube, heat at 70C for 15 hrs. Cool to room temperature; concentrate under reduced pressure to get the crude product. Purification by chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc_PE=2:l) affords the target compound (920 mg, 61.3%).
With the rapid development of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about 1546-78-7.
