New Advances in Chemical Research, April 2021. Catalysts are in the same phase as the reactants. Enzymes are biological catalysts that produce large increases in reaction rates to be specific for certain reactants. Introduce a compound,21905-86-2, Name is Cinnoline-4-carboxylic acid. 21905-86-2
1-(Ethoxycarbonyl)ethyl Cinnoline-4-carboxylate (32) A solution of 0.75 ml of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) in 20 ml of benzene was added to a stirred suspension of 0.87 g of 1 in 30 ml of benzene at room temperature. After one hour of stirring, 1.36 g of ethyl 2-bromopropionate was added and the mixture was heated at reflux for 6 hours. The mixture was cooled, diluted with 25 ml of benzene, washed with water, 1 N aqueous sodium bicarbonate, and brine. It then was dried (MgSO4), the solvent was evaporated and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel, using a 1:1 v:v mixture of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate as eluent, to give 32, as a yellow oil.
