Reaktionsschritte

12.4 g (0.73 mol) of gaseous ammonia were injected into a stirred mixture of 12.8 g (0.052 mol) of 3,6-dichloro-2-methoxy-5-trifluoromethylpyridine in 100 ml of methanol in an autoclave at 140° C., during which process the pressure climbed up to 200 bar. After half an hour, no starting material was detected in a sample. The reaction solution was concentrated and partitioned between methylene chloride and water. After drying, concentration, trituration of the residue with n-pentane, filtration with suction and drying, 3.4 g (28% of theory) of 2-amino-3,6-dichloro-5-trifluoromethylpyridine of m.p. 110°-112° C. were obtained. HPLC analysis revealed that the concentrated pentane filtrate (5 g) was composed of a further 19% of 2-amino-3,6-dichloro-5-trifluoromethylpyridine and 5 other compounds.
