Reaction Steps

2-Chloro-3-nitropyridine (18) (159 mg, 1.0 mmol) in THF (2 mL) was added to a solution of TMPZnCl.LiCl (2) (1.3 M in THF, 0.85 mL, 1.1 mmol) at 25° C. and the reaction mixture was then stirred at this temperature for 30 min according to TP 2. After cooling down to −50° C., 3-bromo-cyclohexene (192 mg, 1.2 mmol) and CuCN.2LiCl (1.0 M solution in THF, 0.05 mL, 0.05 mmol) were added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h at the same temperature. The reaction mixture was quenched with a sat. aq. NH4Cl solution (20 mL), extracted with diethyl ether (3×50 mL) and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. After filtration, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. Purification by flash-chromatography (CH2Cl2/n-pentane, 1:1) furnished 2-chloro-4-cyclohex-2-enyl-3-nitro-pyridine (20) (173 mg, 73%) as a colourless solid.
