Reaction Steps

3-(Benzyloxy)-2-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one (432 mg, 2.0 mmol) was mixed with 2,2-difluoroethylamine (655 mg, 8.0 mmol) and triethylamine hydrochloride (1.10 g, 8.0 mmol) in pyridine (6 mL) in a sealed vial. The reaction mixture was heated at 110° C. for overnight. The solid was filtered and washed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was mixed with water, and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and brine. The product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with 5% methanol in ethyl acetate as eluant to give 3-(benzyloxy)-1-(2,2-difluoroethyl)-2-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one (337 mg) as pale-yellow solid. Yield=60%; 1H NMR (MeOD-D4, 90 MHz) δ (ppm): 7.66 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H), 7.16-7.55 (m, 5H), 6.46 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H), 5.55 (t, J=55.0 Hz, 1H), 4.45 (t, J=14.8 Hz, 1H) and 2.20 (s, 3H); MS m/z 280 [M+1]+.
