Participants

Reaction Steps

C6 (3.0 g, 16.5 mmol) is dissolved in 40 mL DMSO. KH2PO4 (561 mg, 4.1 mmol) in 6.5 mL H2O is added and then NaClO2 (2.6 g, 23.1 mmol) in 24 mL H2O is added, and the reaction is stirred overnight at rt. The reaction is diluted with 200 mL H2O, the pH is adjusted to 9 with 2N NaOH, and any remaining aldehyde is extracted into 3×50 mL ether. The pH of the aqueous layer is adjusted to 3 with 10% aqueous HCl and is extracted with 4×50 mL EtOAc. The combined organic layer is dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to a white solid. The solid is washed with ether and dried to afford 7-chlorofuro[2,3-c]pyridine-5-carboxylic acid (C7) (55% yield). MS (CI) for C8H4ClNO3, m/z: 198 (M+H).
