Trifluoroacetic acid → 5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)pyridin-3-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

TFA (1 ml) was added to a chloroform (1 ml) solution containing tert-butyl(5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)pyridin-3-yl)carbamate (36 mg) obtained in the 1st step, followed by stirring at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure and the residue was added to a mixture of chloroform, water, and a 1M sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, followed by extraction with chloroform. The resultant was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure, and a light brown solid of 5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)pyridin-3-amine (23 mg) was thus obtained.
