Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of 2-mercapto-4-pyridinecarboxylic acid (7.65 g) in a mixture of tetrahydrofuran (60 ml) and methanol (60 ml) was added a solution of sodium 2-ethylhexanoate in isopropyl alcohol (27.5%) and the mixture was stirred for 2 days at room temperature. The reaction mixture was evaporated and the residue was washed with a mixture of acetone and ethanol. The crystals were collected by filtration dried over phosphorus pentoxide to give disodium 2-sulfido-4-pyridinecarboxylate (8.5 g).
