Benzenesulfonic acid, 4-methyl-, compd. with pyridine (1:1) → HCID 86709377, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (PPTS) (0.917 g) was added to an ethanol solution (20 ml) of 5′-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-4-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenoxymethyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyridinyl (1.65 g), and the mixture was stirred for 4 hours while heating under reflux. After cooling the reaction mixture to room temperature, a sodium hydrogen carbonate aqueous solution was added thereto, and ethanol was distilled off under reduced pressure, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off and the precipitated solid was collected by filtration. The solid was then washed with diisopropyl ether and dried to afford the title compound as a yellow powder (0.94 g).
