反应详情

tert-Butyl 3-(6-cyano-2-pyridyl)propanoate (0.74 g, 3.2 mmol) and methyl thiosalicylate (1.1 g, 6.4 mmol) were dissolved in toluene (3 ml). Triethylamine (1.4 ml, 9.7 mmol) was added thereto. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 7.5 hrs, subjected to a silica gel (75 g) column chromatography, eluted with hexane-ethyl acetate (2:1, v/v) and recrystallized from ethanol-hexane to give the titled compound (0.68 g, 57%) as white crystals.
