2-alkyl substituted crotonic acid and ester synthesis method thereof

The invention provides a 2-alkyl substituted crotonic acid and an ester synthesis method thereof.The ester synthesis methodincludes the following steps that 2-alkyl butyric acid, a first catalyst and halogen are used as raw materials to synthesize 2-halogeneated-alkyln-butyric acid; the 2-halogeneated-alkyln-butyric acid, a solvent and inorganic base are used as raw materials to synthesize 2-alkyl crotonic acid; the 2-alkyl crotonic acid, a second catalyst and alcohol are used as raw materials to synthesize 2-alkyl crotonic acid ester. The 2-alkyl substituted crotonic acid and the ester synthesis method have the advantages that the solvents used in all reaction steps are recyclable, a water phase is recycled after finished product filtering, no wastewater is discharged, and a byproduct haloid acid (particularly referring to hydrobromic acid and hydrochloric acid) is obtained after halogen hydridetail gas is absorbed.

Chlorination of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives. VIII. Liquid Phase Chlorination of the Aliphatic C5-Carboxylic Acids and Their Chlorides, Methyl Esters and Chloromethyl Esters with Chlorine

The chlorination of pentanoic, 3-methylbutanoic, 2-methylbutanoic and 2,2-dimethylpropanoic acids and their derivatives with chlorine in the liquid phase have been investigated.The monochloro products formed were determined by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) and gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (GLC-MS) as their esters through the comparison with authentic samples.The deactivation of position 2 decreases in the order COCl > CO2H > CO2CH2Cl > CO2CH3, the effect of the COCl-group in pentanoic acid derivatives being 4.3 times stronger than that of the CO2CH3-group.The deactivation is smallest in 2-methylbutanoic acid derivatives owing to the electron-donating methyl group.The EI mass spectra of the methyl and chloromethyl esters have been studied in detail.
