Hydrochloric Acid → 3-[(Thiophen-2-yl)methyl]pyridine

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of 2-(3-pyridylhydroxymethyl)thiophene (8.82 g, 46.2 mmol), prepared as in step 1, in acetic acid (50 mL) was added tin(H)chloride dihydrate (22.9 g, 101 mmol) and HCl gas was bubbled through the reaction mixture for about 10 min. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1.5 hours at ambient temperature, and the liquid was decanted, concentrated in vacuo to a volume of about 10 mL, and poured into H2O. The aqueous solution was made basic by the slow addition of saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted with ethyl acetate/ether. The organic phase was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography on silica gel (5% methanol/CHCl3) gave 2-(3-pyridylmethyl)thiophene (2.63 g).
