Cyclohexylamine → 6-Chloro-4-(cyclohexylamino)pyridine-3-carboxyamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

200 mg of 4,6-dichloropyridine-3-carboxyamide synthesized according to the method described in US2006/0217417 was dissolved in 2 mL of ethanol, to which 156 mg of cyclohexylamine and 203 mg of N,N-diisopropylethylamine were added, and heated at reflux for 8 hours. After cooling, the solvent was evaporated, and 10 mL of water was added to the residue, neutralized by adding 2 mol/L hydrochloric acid in water under ice cooling, extracted with chloroform, and the extract was dried on anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was recrystallized from chloroform-hexane to obtain 243 mg (92%) of the title compound as colorless needle crystals.
