N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone → 3-((Trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)pyridin-2-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 3-iodopyridin-2-ylamine (40.2 g, 183 mmol) described in Manufacturing Example 1-2-1, trimethylsilylacetylene (51.7 mL, 366 mmol), copper (I) iodide (3.49 g, 18.3 mmol), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (63.7 mL, 366 mmol) and N-methylpyrrolidinone (200 mL) was added tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0) (10.6 g, 9.15 mmol) under nitrogen atmosphere, which was stirred for 3 hours and 10 minutes at room temperature. Water was added to the reaction solution, which was then extracted with ethyl acetate 4 times. The solvent was concentrated under a reduced pressure. The residue was purified by NH silica gel chromatography (heptane:ethyl acetate=4:1). The resulting solution was concentrated under a reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (heptane:ethyl acetate=2:1 then 1:1) to obtain the title compound (28.1 g, 80.7%).
