Triethylamine → 5-Bromo-N-methoxy-N-methylpyridine-3-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-bromo-nicotinic acid (2.02 g, 10 mmol) and O,N-dimethyl-hydroxylamine (670 mg, 11 mmol) in DMF (100 mL) was added HOBt (400 mg, 0.3 mmol), EDCI (2.09 g, 11 mmol) and Et3N (1.11 g, 11 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Water was added to the reaction mixture and it was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried by anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was then purified by flash chromatography to give the title compound (2.08 g, 85%) as a solid.
