Preparation of [Hmim]+ HSO4
- : 1-methylimidazole (0.82 g, 0.01 mol) was placed in a two-necked flask with stirrer
and was cooled to 0 °C. MeCN (10 mL) was added and then H2 SO4 (0.98 g, 0.01 mol) was added slowly with stirring. The mixture was stirred for 30
min and the MeCN was removed by simple decanting.
<A NAME="RG00407ST-22">22 </A>
General procedure: In a mortar a mixture of benzylic alcohol (1.0 mmol), sodium nitrate (0.085
g, 1.0 mmol), and [Hmim]+ HSO4
- (0.25 mmol) was ground with a pestle. The reaction times and temperatures are shown
in Table
[1 ]
. After completion of the reaction (monitored by TLC, EtOAc-cyclohexane, 25:75), the
mixture was cooled to r.t., extracted into Et2 O and washed with H2 O. The organic layer was dried over Na2 SO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue using flash column
chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc-cyclohexane, 20:80) provided the pure carbonyl compounds.
