Controlled Synthesis of 2-Acetyl-6-carbethoxypyridine and 2,6-Diacetylpyridine from 2,6-Dimethylpyridine
The controlled syntheses of mono- and bis-acetylpyridine from the same starting material (2,6-dimethylpyridine) are reported, including the asymmetrical compound 2-acetyl-6-carbethoxypyridine, which has not before been reported. The influences of the amount of catalyst EtONa and the reaction conditi...

Summary: | The controlled syntheses of mono- and bis-acetylpyridine from the same starting material (2,6-dimethylpyridine) are reported, including the asymmetrical compound 2-acetyl-6-carbethoxypyridine, which has not before been reported. The influences of the amount of catalyst EtONa and the reaction conditions to the final products are also explored. A modification of the reported preparation for the 2,6-dipicolinic acid, 2,6-dicarbethoxypyridine and 2,6-diacetylpyridine with higher purity and improved yields is provided here, and the physical and spectral properties of these products are identical to those reported in the literature. |
