Methyl 3-aminothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate → Methyl thieno(3,2-b)pyridine-2-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

The synthesis is carried out according to the general procedure; for work-up, the resulting precipitate is filtered off with suction and washed repeatedly with water, ethyl acetate and THF. The organic phases of the resulting filtrates are separated off, the aqueous phase is washed with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases are dried and concentrated. The resulting product is purified by preparative HPLC. Using 2.40 g (11.53 mmol) of methyl 3-aminothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate and 2.54 g (36.88 mmol) of sodium nitrite, 0.12 g (5% of theory) of the desired product are obtained.
