Reaktionsschritte

2,6-Diacetylpyridine (7.3 g, 44.8 mmol) (ex. Aldrich) and 2,4,6-trimethylaniline (5.74 g, 42.55 mmol) (ex. Aldrich) were dissolved in 450 ml of toluene. To this solution, 4 Å molecular sieves and a small amount of p-toluenesulphonic acid (0.22 mmol) (ex. Aldrich) were added. The mixture was refluxed for 16 h. After filtration the solvent was removed in vacuo. Several crystallisations from ethanol yielded 3.42 g (28.7%) of monoimine (1). 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.55 (d, 1H, Py-Hm), 8.11(d, 1H, Py-Hm), 7.92 (t, 1H, Py-Hp), 6.89 (s, 2H, ArH), 2.77(s, 3H, Me), 2.27 (s, 3H, Me), 2.22 (s, 3H, Me), 1.99 (s, 6H, Me).
