2-Amino-6-methylpyridine → 1-Amino-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-iminium 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of O-(mesitylsulfonyl)hydroxylamine (6.45 g, 30.0 mmol) in DCM (30 mL) was stirred at room temperature, then 2-amino-6-methylpyridine (1.08 g, 10.0 mmol) was added slowly. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 h, and filtered to remove the solvent. A yellow solid was collected which was used for the next step without further purification. ESI MS: m/z 124 [M+H]+.
