Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 4-amino-3-pyridinol (3.0 g), N,N-diisopropylformamide dimethyl acetal (9.54 g) and 15 ml dry toluene was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours and thereafter heated to 60°-70° C. After 90 minutes, the mixture was cooled to room temperature, concentrated in vacuo and chromatographed on silica using 10:90 CH3OH/ethyl acetate as an eluent. The fractions containing the desired product were combined and concentrated to a thick oil, which solidified on refrigeration. This solid (5.3 g) was triturated with hexane three times to provide the product as a white solid, m.p. 77°-79° C.
