Triethylamine → Ethyl 5-Chloropyridine-2-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Palladium acetate (117 mg), 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (577 mg) and triethylamine (1.4 mL) were added to an ethanol-DMF mixed solvent (1/1, 30 mL) of 2-bromo-5-chloropyridine (1.0 g), and stirred overnight in a carbon monoxide atmosphere (1 atmospheric pressure) at 50° C. Ethanol was evaporated off under reduced pressure from the reaction solution, water was added to the resulting residue, and extracted with hexane/ethyl acetate (2/3). The organic layer was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated off under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified through silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=9/1 to 4/1) to obtain the entitled compound (1.4 g).
