Versuchsvorschrift

To a slurry of 3-hydroxypyridine sodium salt, 4.6 g (26.4 mmol) in 200 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added 5.0 g (22.0 mmol) of alpha-bromophenylacetic acid. The reaction mixture was refluxed for two hours, cooled to rt. and concentrated to dryness. The residue was partitioned between 20% isopropanol/chloroform and water. The mixture was washed with saturated NaHCO3, washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by column chromatography using MeOH/chloroform as eluent and concentrated to dryness to give 2.8 g of the desired mixture of isomers as a dark oil. MS (ion spray) 244.1 (M+).
