Application of 6941-75-9, In the chemical reaction process, reaction time, type of solvent, can easily affect the result of the reaction, thereby determining the yield and properties of the reaction product. An updated downstream synthesis route of 6941-75-9 as follows.

Step 1: tert-butyl 5-bromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindole-2-carboxylate To a solution of 5-bromo-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (4 mmol) in THF (10 mL) was added borane-dimethyl sulfide complex (2M in THF, 14 mL) at 0 C. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at reflux overnight and was then cooled to 0 C. The reaction mixture was quenched by the slow addition of MeOH (10 mL) and then 2N HCl (10 mL). The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at reflux for 3 hr and then concentrated. Water (10 mL) was added to the residue. Remaining starting material was removed by extraction with DCM. To the aqueous solution was added 4N NaOH until pH>9. The solution was extracted with DCM. The organic solutions from this basic extraction were combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give 5-bromoisoindoline, which was dissolved in THF (20 mL). To this solution was added potassium carbonate (8 mmol) in water (1 mL), and BOC2O. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at rt over the weekend. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc, washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography to give tert-butyl 5-bromo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindole-2-carboxylate (2.5 mmol, 60%).

According to the analysis of related databases, 6941-75-9, the application of this compound in the production field has become more and more popular.
