2-Bromoresorcinol is an aromatic chemical compound that belongs to the group of phenols . Along with 4-bromoresorcinol and 5-bromoresorcinol, it is one of the three positionally isomeric monobromo derivatives of resorcinol (1,3-dihydroxybenzene).

presentation

2-bromoresorcinol can be produced from resorcinol via the intermediate 2,4,6-tribromoresorcinol , which is formed during the complete bromination with bromine in chloroform . The bromine atoms in positions 4 and 6 are then removed by reaction with sodium sulfite and sodium hydroxide in a 5: 1 water / methanol mixture.

Preparation of 2-bromoresorcinol from resorcinol

The synthesis from 2-aminoresorcinol by a Sandmeyer reaction fails because the diazotization of 2-aminoresorcinol gives 4-nitroso-2-diazoresorcinol.

Historically, 2-bromoresorcinol was produced in several stages starting from 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid. This was first nitrated to 5-nitro-2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid and then reacted with elemental bromine in glacial acetic acid to give 3-bromo-5-nitro-2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid. Reduction of this acid with tin (II) chloride and hydrochloric acid leads to the corresponding amino compound. This is diazotized with sodium nitrite and hydrochloric acid and then converted to 3-bromo-2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid by boiling the diazonium salt formed. Decarboxylation of this acid eventually leads to 2-bromoresorcinol.

Reactions

The introduction of an acetyl group provides 1- (3-bromo-2,4-dihydroxyphenyl) ethanone (CAS number: 60990-39-8) and can be carried out by a Nencki reaction with zinc chloride .

Acetylation of 2-bromoresorcinol

2-Bromoresorcinol is a synthetic building block for the preparation of substituted coumarins , - z. B. is formed in a condensation reaction with ethyl benzoylacetate 8-bromo-7-hydroxy-4-phenylcoumarin.
