Chlorotrimethylsilane → HCID 86650528, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 23.0 g (837 mmol) of the title compound from step A above in 200 mL of anhydrous ethyl acetate at ambient temperature under an atmosphere of nitrogen was added 1.6 g (17 mmol) of anhydrous magnesium chloride, 23.0 mL (166 mmol) of triethylamine, 14.0 g (100 mmol) of 6-chloropyridine-3-carboxaldehyde and 16.0 mL (124 mmol) of chlorotrimethylsilane and the resulting mixture was stirred for 72 h. The heterogeneous reaction mixture was filtered through a 300 mL plug of silica gel eluting with an additional 1 L of ethyl acetate. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness in vacuo and the residue suspended in 200 mL of methanol and 5.0 mL of trifluoroacetic acid. The resulting mixture was stirred at ambient temperature under nitrogen for 5 h during which time the reaction became homogeneous. All volatiles were then removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with a 10-15% ethyl acetate in hexanes gradient to afford the title compound as a white solid (30 g, 88%). LC-MS: m/z (ES) 413.2 (MH)+.
