Pyridine → HCID 14999110, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Pyridine (0.5 ml) was added to a solution of 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-pyridyl)thiazolidin-4-one (0.5 g, 2.1 mmol) in acetic anhydride (2 ml) under ice-cooling. Then, the mixture was kept cooling for 2 hours. The resulting mixture was concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure, and subjected to medium-pressure chromatography (hexane-acetone), giving 3-(2-acetoxy-ethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-pyridyl)thiazolidin-4-one (0.45 g, 77% yield)
