Ethyl chloroformate → (2-Bromo-pyridin-3-yl)carbamic acid ethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-Amino-2-bromopyridine described in Preparation Example S-1 (1.4 g, 8.1 mmol) was dissolved in pyridine (10 mL), ethyl chloroformate (0.93 mL, 9.7 mmol) was added dropwise on an ice bath, and the solution was stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. After the reaction was completed, the reaction solution was poured into brine, and the solution was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, then evaporated, the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=1:4), and the title compound (0.56 g, 2.3 mmol, 28%) was obtained.
