Sodium Bicarbonate → 5-Bromo-N3-[1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)ethyl]pyridine-2,3-diamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

2,3-Diamino-5-bromopyridine (1.07 g) and 1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)ethanone (0.80 g) were dissolved in methanol (20 ml), and acetic acid (0.98 ml) was added. After stirring at room temperature for a while, sodium cyanoborohydride (1.08 g) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours. A saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution was added to the reaction solution, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. Then, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by flash column chromatography (developed with ethyl acetate-hexane) to give the title compound (334 mg).
