Diisopropylamine → HCID 178506295, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Normal-butyllithium (a 2.76 M solution in hexane, 37.0 mL) was dropwise added to a solution of N,N-diisopropylamine (15.0 mL) in tetrahydrofuran (hereinafter referred to as THF, 200 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere at −5 to 0° C., and a solution of 2-fluoro-3-iodo-pyridine (21.8 g) in THF (250 mL) was dropwise added to the resulting solution at −78° C., followed by stirring for 15 min. Subsequently, ethyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate (14.0 mL) was dropwise added to the reaction solution at −78° C., followed by stirring at the same temperature for 1 hr, and then hydrazine monohydrate (9.5 mL) was added to the reaction solution, followed by stirring at 60° C. for 1 hr. The reaction solution was distributed between ethyl acetate and water, and the organic layer was washed with saturated saline. The organic layer after the washing was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then the solvent was distilled away. The residue was purified by neutral silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate) to obtain compound (153a) (21.0 g, 69%) as a white solid.
