Ethyl chloronicotinate → HCID 10654983, compound

Sodium methoxide (18 mL, 25 wt % in methanol) was added slowly to a solution of ethyl-2-chloronicotinate (11.14 g 60 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (60 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred under reflux for 15 h, then cooled to room temperature. The methanol was removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in EtOAc (200 mL) and sat. ammonium chloride solution (50 mL) was added. The organic layer was separated and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Removal of solvent gave ethyl-2-methoxynicotinate (8.58 g, 79%) as yellow oil. Sodium hydride (0.21 g, 60% in mineral oil, 5.16 mmol) was mixed with anhydrous DMF (5 mL). A solution of 3′-bromo-4′-methoxyacetophenone (0.99 g, 4.3 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (3 mL) was added drop-wise at 0° C. under nitrogen. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 5 min. and then at room temperature for 30 min. The mixture was cooled to 0° C. A solution of ethyl 2-methoxy nicotinate (1.81 g, 10 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (3 mL) was added slowly. The ice bath was removed and the stirring continued at room temperature under nitrogen for 20 hours. Water (20 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (2×1.00 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Removal of the solvent gave a dark solid. Triturating with ether gave a yellow solid (1.329 g, 84%). The solid (1.31 g, 3.6 mmol) and pyridinium hydrochloride (6.24g, 54 mmol) were mixed together and stirred at 190° C. for 3 h, The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature, followed by the addition of water (200 mL). The solid was isolated by filtration, washed with water and dried under vacuum. The crude compound was purified by column chromatography (Silica Gel 230-400 mesh; 5:4:1 hexanes, EtOAc and methanol as an eluent) to give 2-(3-bromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-pyrano[2,3-b]pyridinone (0.453 g, 40%) of as yellow solid. MS (ES) m/z: 317.84, 239.9; Mp. 267-272° C.
