Reaktionsschritte

To a mixture of 4-nitropyridine 1-oxide (50 g, 357 mmol) in THF (500 mL) was added sodium ethanolate (48.6 g, 714 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 16 h. The reaction residue was concentrated. The crude material was purified by silica column chromatography (DCM/MeOH=25:1). All fractions found to contain product by TLC (DCM/MeOH=25:1, Rf=0.6) were combined and concentrated to yield a dark red solid of 4-ethoxypyridine 1-oxide (25 g, 162 mmol, 45.3% yield): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 8.20-8.18 (m, 2H), 7.11-7.10 (m, 2H), 4.21-4.15 (m, 2H), 1.42 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H); ES-LCMS m/z 140.0 (M+H).
