Pyridine → 6-Chloro-2-(ethylamino)pyridine-3-carbonyl fluoride

Participants

Reaction Steps

2 ml (24.8 mmol) of pyridine and 4.2 ml (49.8 mmol) of 2,4,6-trifluorotriazine were added to a suspension of 5.0 g (24.8 mmol) of 6-chloro-2-ethylamino-nicotinic acid in 125 ml of dichloromethane. The mixture was stirred for 3 hours at ambient temperature and then filtered. The solid was rinsed with 50 ml of dichloromethane and the filtrate was washed twice with 60 ml of ice-cold water. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and the solvent was evaporated off under reduced pressure. 5.01 g of product were obtained in the form of an orange oil which was used without further purification.
