Participants

Reaction Steps

The procedure is carried out as described in Example 1(b) but with the use of 138 g (0.85 mol) of isobutylidene-2-aminomethylpyridine, 150 ml of toluene and 4 g (0.036 mol) of potassium tert-butylate. After a reaction time of 30 minutes at 40° C. and subsequent distillation, there is obtained 92 g (0.57 mol) of 2-pyridylmethylidene-isobutylamine; yield 67% of theory; b.p. 95° C./2.0×103Pa.
