2-Amino-6-methylpyridine → HCID 54716316, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 5.49 g of 2-amino-6-methylpyridine and 10 g of 1,2-dihydro-4-hydroxy-1-phenyl-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid, ethyl ester in 500 ml of toluene was refluxed for 24 hours in a soxhlet apparatus containing 10 g of 4Å molecular sieves. The solution was filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by means of high pressure liquid chromatography (silica gel: dichloromethane as the eluent) to afford 9.8 g of 1,2-dihydro-4-hydroxy-N-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-1-phenyl-3-quinolinecarboxamide which was dissolved in chloroform, treated with 35 g of activated manganese dioxide and stirred for three hours at room temperature.
