Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Iodo-6-methoxynicotinaldehyde (0.41 g, 1.6 mmol), trimethylsilylacetylene (0.35 mL, 2.8 mmol), PdCl2(PPh3)2 (catalytic amount), CuI (catalytic amount), TEA (2 mL) and THF (10 mL) were stirred at 60° C. for 2 h. The volatiles were evaporated and the residue was taken up in water and extracted with ether. The organic phase was dried, filtered and concentrated. Purification by column chromatography with EtOAc-heptanes (1:3) as eluent gave 0.25 g (68% yield) of 6-methoxy-4-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]nicotinaldehyde.
