Reaction Steps

In a dried 2-necked RBF equipped with reflux condenser and inert atmosphere, 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione (2.33 g, 16 mmol) was dissolved in triethyl orthoformate (16 ml, 97 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. under nitrogen for 1.5 h. On complete consumption of starting material (tic), pyridin-4-amine (1.5 g, 16 mmol) was added and heating continued for 4.5 h. The reaction mixture was cooled down to RT and poured into hexane (50 mL). The solid was filtered off and washed with hexane to afford 2,2-dimethyl-5-((pyridin-4-ylamino)methylene)-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione as an orange solid.
