Reaction Steps

27.6 g (0.15 mol) of 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine are dissolved in 300 ml of dichloromethane. 86 ml of a 1.837-molar solution of peracetic acid in ethyl acetate are added dropwise at 23°-28° C. After stirring for 50 hours at 23° C., the mixture is concentrated in vacuo. 27.2 g (90% of theory) of 4.4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine 1-oxide crystallise from ethylbenzene/petroleum ether; melting point 80°-130° C. (over a range).
