Diisopropylethylamine → HCID 58980644, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the above bromopyridine (2.74 g, 9.07 mmol) in acetonitrile/methanol (9:1, 33 mL) was added N,N-diisopropylethylamine (2.50 mL, 14.2 mmol) followed by (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane (2.0M in hexane, 7.0 mL, 14.2 mmol). The red solution was stirred 0.5 h at room temperature then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in methylene chloride, washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to provide 2-bromo-6-tert-butyl-3-methoxy-isonicotinic acid ethyl ester (2.65 g, 93%) as a red oil which was utilized without further purification.
