Reaktionsschritte

Methyl 3-amino-6-bromo-2-(3-chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)isonicotinate (181 mg, 0.487 mmol) was dissolved in trifluoroacetic acid (2.4 mL) and cooled in an ice bath. Solid sodium nitrite (67 mg, 0.97 mmol) was added with stirring to give a dark red mixture. After 10 minutes, solid sodium azide (317 mg, 4.87 mmol) was added followed by diethyl ether (2.4 mL). This was stirred in the ice bath for 10 minutes and then partitioned between EtOAc and sufficient saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution (gas evolution) to neutralize the acid. The organic phase was separated, washed with brine, dried with sodium sulfate, and the solvent removed. The gave methyl 3-azido-6-bromo-2-(3-chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)isonicotinate (161 mg) as a yellow solid. MS (ESI) m/z 398.9 (M+H). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ ppm 7.85 (1H, d, J=2.14 Hz), 7.75 (1H, s), 7.71 (1H, dd, J=8.55, 2.14 Hz), 7.01 (1H, d, J=8.55 Hz), 4.01 (3H, s), 3.96 (3H, s).
