Water → N-(4-bromopyridin-2-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Dissolve tert-butyl N-(4-bromo-2-pyridyl)-N-(cyclopropanecarbonyl)carbamate (900 mg, 2.8 mmol) in DCM (8 mL), add slowly trifluoroacetic acid (4 mL). Stir the reaction at room temperature for 3 hrs. Pour the reaction mixture to water (50 mL), adjust to pH=7 with saturated NaHCO3 solution. Extract with EtOAc (15 mL×3), combine the organic layers; wash with brine (100 mL), dry over anhydrous Na2SO4. Concentrate under reduced pressure to give the crude product (670 mg) which is used without further purification. MS: (M+1): 243.1.
