Triethylamine → 5-Bromo-2-(3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)-3-methylpyridine

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-(5-Bromo-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ol (2.95 g), triethylamine (3 ml) and trimethylamine monohydrochloride (103 mg) were suspended in toluene (50 ml), mesyl chloride (1.26 ml) was added thereto under ice-cooling, then warmed to room temperature, and stirred for 72 hours. After completion of the reaction, water was added thereto, extracted with chloroform, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. The obtained residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethyl acetate) to give the titled compound (2.39 g) as a white solid. MS (ESI) m/z: 254, 256 (M+H)+.
