Ethyl chloroformate → (6-Methyl-pyridin-2-yl)-propynoic acid ethyl ester

참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of 2-ethynyl-6-methyl-pyridine (0.5 g, 4.3 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) is cooled to −78° C. and treated with 1.6 M N-butyllithium in hexanes (2.9 mL, 4.7 mmol) and stirred for 0.5 h. This solution is then treated with ethyl chloroformate (2.85 mL, 30 mmol) and stirred for 3 h while the solution warms to room temperature. The reaction is quenched with saturated ammonium chloride solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The solvent is removed to yield 0.67 g (83%) of desired product as a light yellow oil.
