m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 68517369, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.55 g (14 mmol) of isopropyl 4-chloropyridine-2-carboxylate (Intermediate 232) and 1.4 g (26 mmol) of m-CPBA in 30 ml CH2Cl2 was stirred at room temperature for 2 d. The mixture was quenched with aqueous NaHSO3 and CH2Cl2 was removed. The aqueous residue was basified with aqueous Na2CO3, saturated with NaCl and extracted repeatedly with EtOAc. The EtOAc was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The residue was taken up in ether and insoluble material was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel (100% CH2Cl2 with gradient elution to 100% EtOAc) to afford 2.1 g of product as an oil. NMR (d6-DMSO): 1.3 (d, 6H), 5.3 (septet, 1H), 7.25 (m, 1H), 7.5 (d, 1H), 8.1 (d, 1H).
