反応手順

In 5.0 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide was dissolved 611 mg (5.00 mmol) of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. To this solution were added 3.26 g (10.0 mol) of cesium carbonate and 0.98 g (6.0 mmol) of 2-chloromethylpyridine hydrochloride at room temperature and the mixture was stirred at 50° C. overnight. The resulting reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 mL), washed with water and then with saturated brine (each in an amount of 30 mL), and dried over magnesium sulfate. After filtration, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=80/20 to 50/50) to give 821 mg (77% yield) of the title compound as a light green crystal.
