Reaction Conditions:
Stage #1:methyllithium with titanium tetrachloride in diethyl ether;acetone at -78; for 1.5 h;Inert atmosphere;
Stage #2:(4-nitrophenyl)ethanone in diethyl ether;acetoneInert atmosphere;
Steps:
2-(4-Nitrophenyl)propan-2-ol (18):
TiCl4 (3.02 mL, 27.6 mmol) was added dropwise slowly to dry Et2O (100 mL) in an acetone / dry ice bath (-78 °C). Methyllithium (17.2 mL, 28 mmol, 1.6 M) was then added dropwise slowly to the reaction mixture, which was stirred for 1.5 h. 4-Nitroacetophenone (3.50g, 21.2 mmol) dissolved in Et2O (150 mL) was added dropwise to the reaction mixture, which was stirred for 18 h. The reaction was quenched with water, and the mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 x 50 mL), which was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4, and evaporated under reduced pressure. Flash chromatography of the crude product using a prepacked 100 g silica column [eluents: solvent A, EtOAc; solvent B, hexanes; gradient, 10% A/90% B (1 CV), 10% A/90% B 60% A/40% B (10 CV), 60% A/40% B (2 CV); flow rate 100.0 mL/min; monitored at 254 and 280 nm] yielded 2-(4-nitrophenyl)propan-2-ol (18) (1.42 g, 7.84 mmol, 37%) as an orange oil.1H NMR (600 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.16 (2H, d, J = 8.9 Hz), 7.65 (2H, d, J = 8.9 Hz), 1.61 (7H, s).13C NMR (151 MHz, CDCl3) δ 156.52, 146.64, 125.51, 123.45, 72.49, 31.69.
