Triethylamine → N-cyano-N'-(4-dimethylaminobenzyl)-3-pyridinecarboximidamide

Isopropyl N-cyano-3-pyridinecarboximidate (0.50 g, 2.6 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (5 ml), and a solution of p-(dimethylamino)benzylamine dihydrochloride (0.65 g, 2.9 mmol) and triethylamine (0.64 g, 6.4 mmol) in methanol (5 ml) were added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. After the reaction was completed, the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the concentrated residue thus obtained was extracted with ethyl acetate (50 ml×3). The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water (50 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residual concentrate thus obtained was subjected to chromatography on a silica gel column (WAKO GEL C-200, 30 g) eluting with chloroformmethanol (100:1). The eluted fractions were concentrated under reduced pressure and then crystallized from methanol-diethyl ether to give the title compound (0.63 g, 2.3 mmol, yield: 85%) as colorless powder.
