反応手順

Ethyl difluoro(pyridin-2-yl)acetate (G) obtained in step 1 (20 g) and 120 mL of ethanol were added, and 4 g of sodium borohydride was added to the reaction mixture over a period of 30 minutes at 0-5° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour at 0-10° C. After completion of the reaction, the RM was quenched by adding saturated ammonium chloride solution at 0-5° C. and the volume of reaction mixture was reduced to half by distilling under vacuum. The solution was basified with 50% NaOH solution and extracted with MTBE. The organic layer was washed with a brine solution, dried over sodium sulphate and distilled under vacuum. The crude material was dissolved in 40 mL MTBE, 70 mL of n-hexane at 0-10° C. was added, and the RM was stirred for 30 minutes. The solid obtained was filtered and washed with hexane, resulting in pure product. (Yield=11 g).
