Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde (1 g, 9.3 mmol) and ethylamine (661 mg, 10.2 mmol, 70% wt in water) was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with chloroform (20 mL) and dried over anhydrous K2CO3. The solution was filtered and the solvent was evaporated to afford N-(3-pyridylidene)-ethylamine (XVII) 1.15 g (92%), which was used immediately without further purification.
