Preparation methods · 1 item
Preparation3-hydroxypyridine was prepared by reacting furfurylamine with H2O2 in the presence of HCl, followed by hydrolysis. The optimal conditions were found as fellows: molar ratio of furfurylamine: HCl : H2O2 = 1 : 5 : 1.1, and H2O2 added dropwisely at 0-5 °C, and then refluxed at 100-105 °C for 0.5 h.
