Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde (1.2 mL, 1.2 mM) and 2,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-3(2H)-furanone (1.5 g, 8 mM) in ethanol (15 mL), was added 1,8-diazebicyclo[4.5.0]undec-7ene (DBU, 0.2 mL, 1.3 mM). The reaction solution was heated at 80° C. for 5 hours. After the reaction solution cooled to room temperature, saturated aqueous sodium chloride (400 mL) was added. The aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (3×100 mL). The combined dichloromethane extracts were washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride (50 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to give a yellow solid. Purification by trituration with 10% diethyl ether in hexane gave a pale pink solid (887 mg, 40% yield), m.p. 74.5°-76° C.
