Triethylamine → HCID 15380643, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-bromo-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde (12.3 g), 1-hexadecyne (16.1 g), triethylamine (20.0 g), bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II)chloride (0.92 g), and. copper(I)iodide (0.13 g) in dry tetrahydrofuran (55 ml) was heated at 50° C. for 29 hrs, under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, filtered, and the filter cake was washed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was evaporated and the residue was taken up in ethyl acetate (100 ml). The mixture was washed with 1:1-water:saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the filtrate was evaporated. Theresidue was flash chromatographed on silica gel, eluting with 1% ethyl acetate:hexanes. The appropriate fractions were collected and evaporated. The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and the solution was washed with half-saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the filtrate was evaporated to give 11.5 g (53.5%) of product, mp 38.5-40° C.
