Potassium Iodide → HCID 86744666, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 30 ml of dimethylformamide are added 3 g of 2-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)-3-(2-thenoyl)-pyridine, 1.7 g of potassium carbonate and 0.3 g of potassium iodide. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. Thereto is added 1.5 g of 3-dimethylaminopropyl chloride, and the mixture is stirred at 50° C. for 4 hours. Thereafter, the reaction mixture is poured into ice-water, whereto ethyl acetate is added. The ethyl acetate is extracted with a dilute hydrochloric acid and the extract is rendered alkaline with potassium carbonate. The isolated oily substance is extracted with ethyl acetate. After the extract is washed with water and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent is distilled off. The residue is converted into the salt with fumaric acid in ethanol. The salt is recrystallized from ethanol to give 2-[4-(3-dimethylaminopropoxy)phenoxy]-3-(2-thenoyl)pyridine fumarate 1/2 hydrate, m.p. 96°-99° C.
