General description
Methyl 2-iodobenzoate can be prepared from 2-iodobenzoic acid via esterification. It undergoes cobalt-catalyzed cyclization with aldehydes to form phthalide derivatives. The microbial dihydroxylation of methyl 2-iodobenzoate forms a nonracemic iodocyclohexene carboxylate intermediate. This intermediate forms the precursor for preparing kibdelone C.
Application
Methyl 2-iodobenzoate may be used in the preparation of:
- N-substituted 4-methylene-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-isoquinolin-1-ones
- methyl diphenylacetylene-2-carboxylate
- methyl 2-heptynylphenylbenzoate
- (E)-2-[3-[3-[2-(7-chloro-2-quinolinyl)ethenyl]phenyl]-3-oxopropyl]benzoic acid methyl ester
- 4-(2-carbomethoxyphenyl)-3-(1-methylethoxy)cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione
- 3-(2-carbomethoxyphenyl)-4-methylcyclobuten-3-ene-1,2-dione 2-(ethylene acetal)
