2-Amino-6-methylpyridine → 3,5-Difluorophenyl isothiocyanate

Participants

Reaction Steps

The title compound, MS (ISP): m/e=347.5 (M+H+), was prepared as for example 1, steps A to C. Step A was performed using 1,3-difluoro-5-isothiocyanato-benzene and yielded 5-(3,5-difluoro-phenylamino)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. This was hydrolized in step B to 5-(3,5-difluoro-phenylamino)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid, which was reacted with 6-methyl-pyridin-2-ylamine in step C. 1,3-Difluoro-5-isothiocyanato-benzene was prepared as in example 96, starting from 3,5-difluoro-phenylamine.
