First, the corresponding enol derivative can be reacted with bromine-containing reagents. First, take a suitable enol compound, place it in a clean reaction kettle, and dissolve it with an appropriate amount of organic solvent, such as anhydrous ether or tetrahydrofuran, which can dissolve the reactants well and have stable properties without interfering with the main reaction. Then slowly add bromine-containing reagents, such as bromine tetrachloride solution, the process needs to be temperature controlled, and maintain a low temperature in an ice bath or a cold water bath to prevent side reactions. The bromine reagent is active and can react with enol derivatives such as addition. After subsequent treatment, such as adding alkali to neutralize excess acid, extraction, distillation, etc., the target product can be obtained.
Second, furan derivatives are used as starting materials. First, specific substituents are modified for furans, methyl and alkenyl groups are introduced, and halogenated hydrocarbons can be used to react with furans under the action of basic catalysts. After the methyl and alkenyl groups are successfully connected to the furan ring, the bromination reaction is carried out. At this time, a suitable brominated reagent, such as N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), is selected, which has a mild reaction and good selectivity. The furan derivative containing methyl and alkenyl groups is mixed with NBS in an inert solvent, such as dichloromethane, and an initiator, such as benzoyl peroxide, is added to initiate the reaction under light or heating conditions. After separation and purification, 5-bromo-4-ene-2-methylfuranoyl can be obtained.
Third, participate in the reaction through organometallic reagents. First prepare an organometallic reagent containing furan structure, such as lithium furan reagent or magnesium furan reagent, and react the furan with metal lithium or magnesium under specific conditions. Then the organometallic reagent reacts with suitable halogenated hydrocarbons containing bromine, alkenyl group and methyl group, and nucleophilic substitution reactions can occur in both. After the reaction, the target product can also be obtained through acidification, separation and other steps. This process requires attention to the high activity of organometallic reagents, strict requirements on the reaction environment, and anhydrous and anaerobic operation.
