Sodium Iodide → Methyl 2-iodoisonicotinate

참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of 2-chloro-pyridine-4-carboxylic acid (5 g, 31.7 mmol) in butan-2-one (150 ml) was heated under reflux with sodium iodide for 6 h to afford the 2-iodo-isonicotinic acid (7.3 g, 92.4% yield) following extractive aqueous workup. This material was dissolved in THF (50 ml) and esterified with fresh etheral diazomethane solution (44 ml, 0.55 mol/l). After evaporation of the solvent and filtration through a pad of silica gel, [elution with CH2Cl2/(2M NH3 MeOH)=19:1] the title compound (2.3 g, 44%) was obtained as a dark yellow oil. MS: m/e=263.0 (M1).
