Reaction Steps

A 100 mL round-bottom flask was charged with the above 3-amino-2-cyano-5-chloropyridine (8.95 g, 61.54 mmol), 4-chloro-3-trifluoromethyl-benzenesulfonyl chloride (19.6 g, 80 mmol), and pyridine (50 mL). The resultant solution was heated to 60° C. and stirred for overnight. The pyridine was removed in vacuo and dioxane (200 mL) was added, followed by NaOH (28 g, 0.70 mol). The mixture was stirred under reflux for two days. The solvent was subsequently removed in vacuo and ice (100 g) was added and the pH adjusted to 2-3 with conc HCl. The resultant solid was filtered and washed with water twice and was dried in vacuo to afford the light yellow solid. This solid was dissolved in EtOAc and any insoluble solid was filtered off. The filtrate was washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 5-chloro-3-(4-methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzenesulfonylamino)-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (16.5 g): (M+H)+ expect 395.0, found 395.0.
