Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-chloropyridine-4-carboxylic acid (1.57 g, 100 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (30 mL) was added hydrazine hydrate (1.0 g, 200 mmol) dropwise at rt. The reaction mixture was heated at 100° C. overnight. The mixture was concentrated, and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (CH2Cl2/MeOH=20/1) to afford the title compound (650 mg, 42%) as a white solid. [M+H] Calc'd for C6H7N3O2, 154; Found, 154.
