Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To 3,5-dichloropyridin-2-amine (0.36 g, 2.209 mmol) in dichloromethane (25 mL) was added 1,1′-thiocarbonyldipyridin-2(1H)-one (0.523 g, 2.253 mmol). The reaction was stirred at 40° C. for 3 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and the crude was purified by chromatography (Biotage: 25-100% ethyl acetate/hexane) to yield to yield 3,5-dichloro-2-isothiocyanatopyridine (0.4 g, 1.951 mmol, 88% yield). 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-D6) δ ppm 8.50 (t, J=2.59 Hz, 1 H), 8.45 (t, J=2.59 Hz, 1 H). MS (LC/MS) R.T.=2.07; [M+H]+=204.8.
