2,5-Undecanedione is a chemical compound from the group of diketones in which the two carbonyl groups are separated by two methylene groups (γ-diketone).
presentation
According to a synthetic route described by Heinz Hunsdiecker in 1942, 2,5-undecanedione can be obtained starting from 5-methylfurfurol . First, 5-methylfurfural 1 is reacted with methyl propyl ketone 2 in an aldol condensation to form the α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compound 3 . With sodium amalgam , only the double bond of the side chain of the condensation product is specifically reduced . The intermediate stage 4 is then converted into 2-methyl-5-hexylfuran 5 in a Wolff-Kishner reduction with hydrazine . The furan ring is cleaved by acid-catalyzed conversion at 120 ° C. and converted to 2,5-undecanedione 6 .
An alternative synthesis route starts from heptanal 1 . First, the carbonyl group is protected with 1,3-propanedithiol 2 as dithiane 3 . The dithiane is deprotonated in THF with n- butyllithium and alkylated with 1,3-dichloro-2-butene 4 to form intermediate 5 . The 2,5-undecanedione 6 is obtained by hydrolysis of the dithioacetal protective group with concentrated sulfuric acid . The crude product can be worked up and purified by derivatization with Girard reagent T in methanol.
use
2,5-undecanedione can be cyclized in a Hunsdiecker condensation with sodium hydroxide solution in boiling ethanol to the fragrance dihydrojasmone :
