(1-Methylcyclopropyl)methanol → HCID 118113349, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of potassium tert-butoxide (1.68 g) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL), a solution of 1-methylcyclopropanemethanol (1.29 g) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes. After the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C., a solution in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) of the compound (3.00 g) obtained in step (1) above was added and after being brought to room temperature, the reaction mixture was stirred for an hour. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane:ethyl acetate=95:5-50:50) to give N-methoxy-N-methyl-6-[(1-methylcyclopropyl)methoxy]pyridine-3-carboxamide as a colorless oil (2.02 g).
