Abstract
Hydrocarbostyril, which is a key intermediate in our new synthetic route to 6-nitroquipazine, can be prepared from 1-indanone oxime by Beckmann rearrangement. We have optimized the reaction by using a Lewis acid, aluminum chloride,in the yield of 91% instead of common acids such as polyphosphoric acid,and sulfuric acid used in conventional Beckmann rearrangement (20% in the literature, 10% in our experiment).The optimized condition is established by usingthree equivalents of aluminum chloride in CH2Cl2 at -40 ℃ - room tempera-turefor 40 min. We have applied this condition to other 1-indanone derivatives, such as 4-methyl-, 4-methoxy-, 4-nitro and 6-nitro-1-indanones. The mechanism ofthis BR has been proposed on the basis of the effect of tem-perature and substituenton product ratio, with the aid of PM3 calculation for a model system.
