Maresh, Justin J. published the artcileChemoselective Zinc/HCl Reduction of Halogenated ¦Â-Nitrostyrenes: Synthesis of Halogenated Dopamine Analogues, Name: 1,2-Dimethoxy-4-(2-nitrovinyl)benzene, the publication is Synlett (2014), 25(20), 2891-2894, database is CAplus.
A detailed account regarding the synthesis of 2- and 5-halogenated dopamine is given. The key step is a chemoselective reduction of a nitrostyrene by Zn/HCl at 0 ¡ãC. These conditions represent a simple, low-cost alternative to reduction by water-sensitive hydride donors and two-step procedures. Under these conditions, aryl fluoride, chloride, and bromide groups are stable. However, iodine undergoes significant reductive dehalogenation.
Synlett published new progress about 4230-93-7. 4230-93-7 belongs to catalysis-chemistry, auxiliary class Alkenyl,Nitro Compound,Benzene,Ether, name is 1,2-Dimethoxy-4-(2-nitrovinyl)benzene, and the molecular formula is C10H11NO4, Name: 1,2-Dimethoxy-4-(2-nitrovinyl)benzene.
