Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 15.30 g of 3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole, 16.64 g of 2,3-dichloropyridine, 26.42 g of potassium carbonate and 100 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide was stirred at 130° C. for 14 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and then water was poured thereto. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate two times. The organic layers were combined, washed successively with water and an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to obtain 22.88 g of 3-chloro-2-(3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine of the formula:
