Reaktionsschritte

A 1.3M solution of aminodimethyl aluminium in dichloromethane (obtained as described in Tetrahedron Letters, 1979, 4907) (7.8 ml) was added to a solution of methyl 2,6-diethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyridine-3-carboxylate (1.05 g in dichloromethane (50 ml) and the solution was left to stand for 20 hours. Methanol (5 ml) was added and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The precipitated solid was removed by filtration through a bed of diatomaceous earth. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue purified by flash chromatography, eluting with methanol/dichloromethane (1:9 v/v), to give 2,6-diethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyridine-3-carboxamide (0.5 g), m.p. 254° C.; NMR (d6 -DMSO): 1.15-1.25(m,6H), 2.5(q,2H), 3.0(q,2H), 6.1(s,1H), 7.0(br s, 1H), 9.6(br s, 1H), 11.3(br s, 1H).
