Reaction Steps

[step 2] N-(6-fluoropyridin-3-yl)cyclobutanecarboxamide (800 mg, 4.12 mmol) obtained in step 1 was dissolved in acetic anhydride (4 mL), fuming nitric acid (0.7 mL, 15.7 mmol) was added under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr. Under ice-cooling, 5 mol/L aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was added dropwise to the mixture, and the mixture was extracted 3 times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=1/1 v/v) to give N-(6-fluoro-2-nitropyridin-3-yl)cyclobutanecarboxamide (348 mg, 35%).
