Potassium Hydroxide → 6-[(Methyloxy)carbonyl]-2-pyridinecarboxylate potassium salt

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a suspension of dimethyl 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate (95.22 g, 488 mmol) in a 2 L round-bottom flask under nitrogen in methanol (1,200 mL; ˜12.5 volumes) was added powdered potassium hydroxide (27.4 g, 488 mmol). The mixture was stirred and after 3 min was almost all in solution. After 20 min lab HPLC showed a 33:62 ratio of starting material to product. Solvent was evaporated and the resulting solid was stirred well with 1000 mL ethyl acetate, then filtered under vacuum, then dried at 40° C. under high vacuum to give 84.5 g (79%) of a white solid that lab HPLC showed to be 98.2% pure (ret time 1.41 min). LC-MS m/z 182 (M+H)+, 0.57 min (ret time).
