Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, DMF (14 mL) and THF (44 mL) were added to acetamide (6.6 g, 112 mmol), and the mixture was warmed to 50° C. A 1.9 M sodium hexamethyldisilazide THF solution (51 mL, 96 mmol) was added dropwise thereto, and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at the same temperature. 5-Chloro-2,3-difluoropyridine (7.0 g) was then added, THF (1.4 mL) was further added, and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at the same temperature. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C., an aqueous solution of citric acid monohydrate (20 g) and sodium chloride (4.9 g) in water (35 mL) was added, the mixture was warmed to room temperature, and the organic layer was separated. The organic layer was washed with a 20 wt % sodium chloride aqueous solution (35 mL), and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. A mixed solvent (70 mL) of heptane and tert-butyl methyl ether (15:1) and water (35 mL) were added to the residue, and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature. The mixture was filtered, and the obtained solid was washed twice with water (35 mL). It was further washed with a mixed solvent (70 mL) of heptane and tert-butyl methyl ether (15:1), and dried under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (6.5 g).
