1,1'-Carbonyldiimidazole → 1,6-dimethyl-5-fluoro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-N-(6-cyano-3-pyridyl)-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

500 mg of 5-fluoro-1,6-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid was dissolved in 5 ml of acetonitrile, and 403 mg of carbonyldiimidazole was added thereto. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour under heat refluxing condition, 297 mg of 5-amino-2-cyanopyridine was added, and the mixture was further stirred for 1 hour under heat refluxing condition. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the resulting crystals were collected by filtration to obtain 460 mg of 1,6-dimethyl-5-fluoro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-N-(6-cyano-3-pyridyl)-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide (hereinafter, referred to as present compound 12) represented by the formula:
