Sodium Hydroxide → HCID 22392577, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of phosphorous trichloride (7.2 mL, 82 mmol) in CH2Cl2 was added to a cooled 0° C. solution of 2-ethyl-4-nitro-pyridine 1-oxide (3 g, 17.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2. The reaction was stirred for 2 hours and then warmed up to rt. After 3 hours the mixture was poured into ice, made basic with 15% NaOH and extracted with EtOAc. The organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to a yellow oil that solidified on standing (2.56 g, 95%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 1.40 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 3H), 3.14 (d, J=7.6 Hz, 2H), 8.04 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H), 8.06 (s, 1H), 8.92 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H).
