Triethylamine → 3-Methanesulfonyl-5-triethoxyprop-1-ynyl-pyridine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-bromo-5-methanesulfonyl-pyridine (1.00 g, 4.20 mmol), 3,3,3-triethoxypropyne (1.75 g, 9.4 mmol), dichlorobis(triphenylphospine)palladium(II) (0.15 g, 0.21 mmol), copper(I)iodide (0.08 g, 0.42 mmol), triethylamine (1.80 mL, 12.7 mmol) and dichloromethane (40 mL) was heated at reflux for 48 h. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was chromatographed on silica (30% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to give the title compound (1.2 g, 87% yield) as yellow solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 9.08(d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 8.91 (d, 1H J=2.0), 8.28 (t, 1H, J=2.0 Hz), 3.75 (q, 6H, J=7.2), 3.13 (s, 3H), 1.29 (t, 9H, J=7.2).
