Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-amino-2-methoxypyridine (18 g, 161 mmol) in methanol (80 mL) was added acetone (20 mL, 177 mmol). The reaction was heated at reflux for 24 hours and the volatiles were concentrated in vacuo to provide 21.3 g of isopropylidene-(6-methoxy-pyridin-3-yl)-amine. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.59 (d, 1H), 7.31 (m, 1H), 6.70 (d, 1H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 2.20 (s, 3H), 1.85 (s, 3H).
