Upstream Synthesis Route
  • The upstream synthesis of 2-Amino-5-bromobenzaldehyde generally involves the functionalization of a suitable benzene derivative. A common route would utilize 2-nitroaniline as a starting material, which undergoes bromination followed by reduction and formylation steps:
    
    1. Bromination: 2-Nitroaniline is treated with bromine in an acidic medium, typically acetic acid, to yield 5-bromo-2-nitroaniline.
    
    2. Reduction: The nitro group of 5-bromo-2-nitroaniline is then catalytically reduced, usually using hydrogen gas in the presence of a palladium on carbon (Pd/C) catalyst, to give 5-bromo-2-aniline.
    
    3. Formylation: The benzene ring of 5-bromo-2-aniline is then subjected to formylation using Vilsmeier-Haack reagent, a combination of DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide) and POCl3 (phosphorus oxychloride), to form the desired 2-amino-5-bromobenzaldehyde.
    
    This synthesis route yields the target compound through halogenation, reduction, and formylation steps, utilizing intermediate purification where necessary to remove by-products and unreacted starting materials.
