Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 15.4 g (0.1 mol) of 6-methoxy-3-nitropyridine and 20.4 g (0.1 mol) of 1-chloromethane-sulfonyl-4-methyl-benzene is dissolved in 100 mL of DMF and cooled to 5 C. To this solution is added, dropwise, 100 mL (0.1 mol) of a 1M solution of potassium t-butoxide in THF, keeping the temperature ≦10 C. The dark reaction mixture is stirred for 18 hours at room temperature. The reaction mixture is evaporated to remove the THF, and to the remaining solution is added 100 mL of water. A dark brown precipitate formed which is collected by filtration. This solid is triturated with isopropyl ether for 1 hour and refiltered to yield 12 grams of 6-methoxy-3-nitro-2-(toluene-4-sulfonylmethyl)-pyridine. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.25 (d, 1H), 7.60 (m, 2H), 7.30 (m, 2H), 6.80 (d, 1H), 5.10 (s, 1H), 3.75 (s, 3H), 2.40 (s, 3H).
