All reactions were carried out under an atmosphere of dry nitrogen. Anhydrous dioxane, CPME, and toluene were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and used without further purification. THF was dried through activated alumina columns. Unless otherwise stated, all reagents were commercially available and used without further purification. Flash chromatography was performed with silica gel (300–400 mesh). The NMR spectra were obtained using a Brüker 500 MHz Fourier-transform NMR spectrometer. High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) data were obtained on a Waters LC-TOF mass spectrometer (model LCT-XE Premier) using chemical ionization (CI) or electrospray ionization (ESI) in positive or negative mode, depending on the analyte.

Anhydrous Solvent Handling and NMR Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All air- and moisture-sensitive reactions were conducted under a dry nitrogen atmosphere in oven-dried glassware, using standard syringe/cannula transfer techniques unless otherwise reported. Anhydrous dioxane (Sigma Aldrich) was used directly from a Sure/Seal bottle. Unless otherwise stated, all commercial reagents were purchased from Sigma Aldrich and used without further purification. 1H NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker 400 MHz spectrometer in either CDCl3 or DMSO-d6. Chemical shifts (δ) are reported in parts per million (ppm) after calibration to the internal reference solvent peak (CDCl3: 7.26 ppm and DMSO-d6: 2.50 ppm). Coupling constants (J) are reported in Hz. Exact mass was calculated for M+Na using electrospray ionization unless reported otherwise. Using a Hewlett Packard 8453 UV-Vis spectrophotometer, solubility was obtained either by measuring the increase in light scatter upon increasing precipitation via absorbance at 700 nm, or by using absorbance calibration curves at the noted wavelength and then extrapolating concentration from saturated sample absorbance [33 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
