Sodium Carbonate → 4-(3-Chloropyridin-2-yl)benzaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

{circle around (1)} 100 g (0.676 mol) of 2,3-dichloropyridine, 101.4 g (0.676 mol) of (4-formylphenyl)boronic acid and 86 g (0.811 mol) of sodium carbonate were dissolved in 500 mL of 1,2-dimethoxyethane and 500 mL of distilled water, and 78 g (0.0676 mol) of Pd(PPh3)4 was added. The mixture was heated to reflux for 18 hours so that it was allowed to react. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to remove 1,2-dimethoxyethane, and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was treated with magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure, yielding 4-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzaldehyde as represented below in a 81% yield.
