A new synthetic route of 2,6-Dimethyl-3-nitropyridine

With the rapid development of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about 15513-52-7.

As we all know, there are many different methods for the synthesis of a compound, and people can choose the synthesis method that suits their own laboratory according to the actual situation. 15513-52-7, name is 2,6-Dimethyl-3-nitropyridine, molecular formula is C7H8N2O2, The compound is widely used in many fields, so it is necessary to find a new synthetic route. The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below. HPLC of Formula: C7H8N2O2

A solution of 2,6-dimethyl-3-nitropyridine (50 g, 329 mmol) and SeO2 (5.02 g, 27.9 mmol) in dioxane (500 mL) was heated at reflux for 16 hours. The solution was filtered, the solvent removed and the residue purified by column chromatography directly (20% EtOAc/hexanes). The material was recrystalized from ethyl acetate to give 41 g of 6-methyl-5-nitropicolinaldehyde (41 g, 75%), a pale yellow solid; 1HNMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) delta 2.94(s, 3H), 7.98 (d, J=8.34, 1H), 8.41 (d, J=8.34, 1H), 10.09 (s, 1H). Exact mass calculated for C7H6N2O3: 166.04, found: 167.12 MS m/z (MH+).

With the rapid development of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about 15513-52-7.
