Procedure

To a stirred solution of 4-methyl-4-(methyldisulfanyl)pentyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (5c) (0.48 g, 1.435 mmol) and diethyl 4-hydroxypyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate (5a)(0.343 g, 1.435 mmol) in anhydrous dimethylformamide (6.5 mL) was added Potassium carbonate (0.297 g, 2.152 mmol). The reaction was stirred at 90° C. for 18 hours. Then allowed to cool to ambient temperature and quenched with saturated ammonium chloride. The mixture was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The extracts were dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by silica gel chromatography (30% hexanes/ethyl acetate) yielded diethyl 4-(4-methyl-4-(methyldisulfanyl)pentyloxy)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate (5d)(300 mg, 52%); 1H NMR (400 Hz, CDCl3): δ 7.70 (s, 2H), 4.40 (q, 4H, J=7.2, 14.4 Hz), 4.07 (t, 2H, J=6. Hz), 2.35 (s, 3H), 1.86 (m, 2H), 1.70 (m, 2H), 1.38 (t, 6H, J=7.2 Hz), 1.27 (s, 6H); MS (m/z). found 424.1 (M+Na), 440.1 (M+K). See FIG. 5.
