Reaktionsschritte

6-chloro-5-methyl-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (0.85 g, 4.97 mmol) and sodium sulfite (CAN 7757-83-7, 1.5 g, 11.9 mmol) were added to water (3 mL) and ethanol (3 mL). The mixture was heated to 180° C. for 4 h in a sealed tube. After that the mixture was cooled to room temperature and a solid precipitated that was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated and added to water (20 mL). The aqueous phase was washed with ethyl acetate (2×20 mL). Subsequently the aqueous phase was adjusted to pH=2 with 2 N hydrochloric acid. Water was removed in vacuo to give the product as solid (1.2 g); MS (EI): m/e=218.0 [M+H]+.
