2-Chloro-4-cyanopyridine → {2-[4-(4-Cyanopyridin-2-yloxy)phenyl]ethyl}carbamic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

Using a method similar to Example 381, Part A, using 2-chloroisonicotinonitrile (0.500 g, 3.61 mmol) and [2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (Example 377, Part A) (0.856 g, 3.61 mmol) gives the title compound (0.947, 77.6%): MS ES+ 340.2 (M+H)+, base peak MS ES+ 284.0 (M+2H—C(CH3)3))+; TLC [silica gel 60 F254, 40% ethyl acetate in hexanes] Rf=0.30.
