Reaction Steps

1.63 g of 6-chloro-3-nitropyridin-2-ol, 66 ml of heptane, 3.175 g of 2-iodopropane and 3.09 g of silver carbonate are introduced. The reaction medium is microwave-heated at 130° C. for 10 minutes and is then evaporated to dryness, bound to silica and purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (40-63 μm), elution being carried out with a mixture of heptane and ethyl acetate (90/10). 1.79 g of 6-chloro-3-nitro-2-(propan-2-yloxy)pyridine are obtained in the form of a beige solid.
