Extracurricular laboratory: Synthetic route of 123-32-0

The chemical industry reduces the impact on the environment during synthesis 2,5-Dimethylpyrazine. I believe this compound will play a more active role in future production and life.

Application of 123-32-0, Each compound has different characteristics, and only by selecting the characteristics of the compound suitable for a specific situation can the compound be applied on a large scale. 123-32-0, name is 2,5-Dimethylpyrazine, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows.

54 g (498 mmol) of 2,5-dimethylpyrazine (manufactured by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) and 224 g (2.02 mol) of selenium dioxide were added to 840 ml of a mixed solution of pyridine and water (mixing mass ratio: 20/1) And the mixture was heated under reflux for 48 hours. The reaction solution was cooled to ambient temperature and filtered, and the filtration residue was washed with a mixed solution of pyridine and water (mixing mass ratio: 20/1), the filtrate and the washing solution were combined and the liquid was distilled off to obtain a solid It was.The resulting solid was dispersed in 2 M dimethylamine aqueous solution used as an extraction solvent, and residual solids were removed from the extract by filtration. By distilling off the solvent from the extract, 71 g (yield 85%) of 2,5-pyrazinedicarboxylic acid (3) was obtained.

The chemical industry reduces the impact on the environment during synthesis 2,5-Dimethylpyrazine. I believe this compound will play a more active role in future production and life.
