m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 23088707, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of methyl 5-hydroxypyridin-2-carboxylate (5.30 g) in dichloromethane (75 ml), m-chloroperbenzoic acid (>65%, 11.0 g) is added under ice-cooling, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. The reaction solution is concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is suspended in ethyl acetate and collected by filtration to give the title compound (4.62 g). Mother liquor is concentrated under reduced pressure and the resulting residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: chloroform to methanol/chloroform=1/5). The resulting solid is suspended in ethyl acetate/diethyl ether and collected by filtration to give the title compound (0.68 g).
