Ethylamine → 3-Bromo-4-(2-ethylaminopyridin-3-yl)thiophene

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-bromo-4-(2-fluoropyridin-3-yl)thiophene (0.344 g) and ethylamine (0.2 g) in dioxane (1 mL), in a sealed tube, was heated at 100° C. for four days. The mixture was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, dried, filtered, and evaporated. The residue was fractionated by chromatography to give 3-bromo-4-(2-ethylaminopyridin-3-yl)thiophene (0.316 g) as an oil.
