Reaktionsschritte

First, 0.93 g (6.36 mmol) of 3-phenyl-2-butenal and 0.99 g (5.91 mmol) of benzenesulfonyl cyanide were introduced to a 3-necked flask (25 ml volume) equipped with a thermometer, a magnetic stirrer, a Dean-Stark water type distilling receiver, and a condenser tube. Toluene (5 ml) as the solvent and butanol (0.5 ml) were added, and 0.14 g (0.59 mmol) of tributyl borate was added. Then the mixture was heated under reflux for 2 hours while agitating at an internal temperature of 112° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere, separating and removing water that was produced. After this solution was cooled to room temperature, the low-boiling components, such as solvent, etc., were removed under reduced pressure to give the desired, crude product. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluting solvent: ethyl acetate/hexane=¼) to give 1.20 g of 2-benzenesulfonyl-4-phenylpyridine with the following properties as colorless crystals (purity of 99%, yield of 71% based on benzenesulfonyl cyanide).
