Reaction Steps

To a mixture of acetonitrile (4 ml) and 2,6-dimethylpyridine-3-sulfonic acid (410 mg, 2 mmol), triethylamine (404 mg, 4 mmol) was added at room temperature while stirring, followed by evaporation to dryness under reduced pressure to obtain 2,6-dimethylpyridine-3-sulfonic acid triethylamine salt. The triethylamine salt was dissolved in acetonitrile (4 ml). To the resulting solution cooled with a cooling bath kept at -20° C., a mixed gas of 10% fluorine/ 90% nitrogen was introduced at a flow rate of 15 ml/min. The total amount of the fluorine gas was 6 mmol. Thereafter, the nitrogen gas alone was introduced for 30 minutes. Ethyl acetate was added to the reaction mixture. The precipitated crystal was recovered by filtration to obtain N-fluoro-2,6-dimethylpyridinium-3-sulfonate (257 mg). Yield, 63%. Decomposition point, 200°-210° C.
