Sodium Carbonate → HCID 57825691, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.68 g of sodium carbonate (25.3 mmol), 1.15 g of 4-formylphenylboronic acid (7.66 mmol), and 0.27 g of Pd(PPh3)4 were added to 1.5 g of (5,6-dichloropyridin-3-yl)methanol (8.43 mmol) dissolved in 30 mL of 1,2-dimethoxyethane and 30 mL of distilled water, and refluxed under heating and stirring for 18 hours. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and concentrated under about 50% reduced pressure to extract the aqueous layer with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was separated by column chromatography (eluting solvent: chloroform/methanol=10/1) to obtain 1.40 g of 4-(3-chloro-5-(hydroxymethyl)pyridin-2-yl)benzaldehyde (yield 74%).
