Product Name:5-Methoxyisatin
CAS Number:39755-95-8
Molecular formula:C9H7NO3
Molecular Weight:177.16

Using water as solvent, 5-methoxyaniline reacted with chloral hydrate and hydroxylamine hydrochloride at 90 ℃ for 3.5h to obtain p-methoxyisonitrosoacetanilide in 95% yield. After hydrolysis, 5-methoxyisatin was obtained in 88% yield by cyclization at 92℃ with concentrated H2SO4 (75%).

Yield:39755-95-8 88%

Reaction Conditions:

with sulfuric acid in water at 70 - 80; for 1.25 h;

Steps:

2) 5-Methoxy-isatin

Concentrated sulfuric acid (176 mL) containing 5 mL of water was warmed to 70 ⁰C and N-(2-hydroximino-acetyl)anisidine (25 g, 0.13 mol) was added portionwise over 1 h maintaining the temperature between 70-80 ⁰C. After complete addition the mixture was refluxed at 80 ⁰C for 15 minutes. Then mixture was poured into 500 g of ice and 800 mL of cold water. The black precipitate was collected by vacuum filtration, washed with cold water to pH 7 and dried on air to give 21.78 g (88 % yield) of 5-methoxy-isatin. mp (exp.) = 201-205 ⁰C (mp [2] = 204-204.5 ⁰C). Spectrum NMR ¹ (CDCl₃, δ, ppm, J, Hz): 3.74 (s, 3); 6.84 (d, 1, J =8.6); 7.06 (s, 1); 7.17 (dd, 1H, J =1.0, J =2.5); 10.86 (s, 1).
