Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of methyl 4-aminopyridine-3-carboxylate (100 g, 0.6 mol) and acetic anhydride (240 g, 2.4 mol) in anhydrous 1,4-dioxane (1.2 L) was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and diluted with water (800 mL). The mixture was neutralized with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate to pH 7. The formed solid was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo to afford 50 g of methyl 4-(acetylamino)pyridine-3-carboxylate as a white solid.
