2-Pyridinecarboxaldehyde → HCID 20077423, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 1,5-diazaoctane (16) (0.58 g, 0.005 mol) in dry benzene (20 mL) was added dropwise pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde (0.535 g, 0.005 mol) in dry benzene (10 mL). The resulting solution was refluxed for 2 hr using a Dean-Stark trap to remove water. Finally, the solvent was removed completely by distillation to give compound (17) in quantitative yield (1.0 g).
