Dimethylformamide → 5-Chloropyridine-2-carboxaldehyde

Temperature

0 °C

To a solution of 2-bromo-5-chloropyridine (14.8 g, 77 mmol) in THF (38.5 mL) was added dropwise a a solution of i-PrMgCl.LiCl (14% in THF, 81 mL, 85 mmol) at 0-5° C. and the resulting mixture stirred at 0° C. for 1 h. Then DMF (7.7 mL, 100 mmol) was added dropwise at −5° C. and the temperature maintained at 0° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture was then poured into ice cold saturated brine (500 mL) and then extracted with ethyl acetate (2×300 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated sodiumhydrogencarbonate solution, brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated. Purification by chromatography (SiO2, heptane:ethyl acetate=1:0 to 9:1) afforded the title compound (6.24 g, 57%) which was obtained as a brown solid. MS: m/e=141.0 [M]+.
