Reaktionsschritte

Into ethyl acetate was suspended 1.91 g of 6-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinic acid, and then 1.52 g of triethylamine and 3.03 g of DPPA were added thereto, followed by 3 hours of stirring. The reaction solution was washed with a saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution and saturated saline and the solvent was removed by evaporation to obtain 2.0 g of 6-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinyl azide as a solid. The resulting acid azide was dissolved into 20 ml of toluene and the solution was heated and refluxed to convert the acid azide into 5-isocyanato-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine. Thereafter, 1 ml of methanol was added thereto at room temperature, followed by 1 hour of stirring. The reaction solution was washed with water and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Thereafter, the solvent was removed by evaporation to obtain 1.2 g of the title compound.
