Reaktionsschritte

3-Bromo-2-amino-5-methylpyridine (1.0 g, 5.3 mmol), potassium hydroxide (1.19 g, 21.2 mmol) and copper powder (17 mg, 0.27 mmol) were heated to 150° C. in ethylene glycol (2.3 mL). After 4 h, the reaction mixture was allowed to cool to rt, carbon disulfide (10 mL) was added, and heating was continued at 70° C. overnight. Upon cooling to rt, the reaction mixture concentrated under reduced pressure. 1 N HCl (20 mL) was added, and the resulting dark solid was collected by filtration. The solid was washed with water (2×) and air dried followed by drying in a 35° C. vacuum oven, yielding 0.817 g (93%) of the title compound. LC-MS: RT=4.14 min, [M+H]+=167.0, ˜80% pure.
