Dimethyl Sulfoxide → Ethyl 2-(3-nitropyridin-4-yl)acetate

Temperature

100 °C

To a 100 ml RB flask was added 1.5 g (5.3 mmol) of 3-nitro-4-pyridinyl-propanedioic acid diethyl ester, 0.450 g (10.6 mmol) of lithium chloride, 0.095 g (5.3 mmol) of water and 35 mL of DMSO. The solution was heated at 100° C. for 4 h. The cooled reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and washed successively with water (50 mL) and brine (50 mL). The organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated, and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel eluting with a hexane-10% EtOAc/hexane gradient to give 0.76 g of the title compound as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 1.14 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3H), 4.06 (q, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 4.12 (s, 2H), 7.63 (d, J=4.9 Hz, 1H), 8.82 (d, J=4.9 Hz, 1H), 9.21 (s, 1H); C9H10N2O4: APES+MS m/z 211 (M+H).
