Phosphorus oxychloride → 3-Chloro-6-cyclopropylpyridazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-cyclopropylpyridazin-3-ol (182 mg, 1.3 mmol) in POCl3 (15 mL) was refluxed for 1 hour, and concentrated. The residue was treated with ethyl acetate (60 mL) and sat. NaHCO3 aqueous solution (10 mL) at 0° C. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to afford 3-chloro-6-cyclopropylpyridazine (185 mg, 89%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD): δ1.11 (m, 2H), 1.20 (m, 2H), 2.25 (m, 1H), 7.52 (d, 1H), 7.67 (d, 1H).
