Reaction Steps

To a solution of 958 mg of (6-methylpyridin-3-yl)methanol, 1.3 ml of triethylamine, and 95 mg of DMAP in 40 ml of dichloromethane was added dropwise 1.08 ml of benzoyl chloride, followed by stirring at room temperature. To the reaction solution was added water, followed by carrying out an extraction operation with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate) to obtain 1767 mg of (6-methylpyridin-3-yl)methyl benzoate.
