The major producers of chemicals have been the Europe, Japan and China. Due to the growing call for a cleaner, greener environment, people will have to find innovative ways to maintain their relevance. Here is a compound 1122-71-0, name is 6-Methyl-2-pyridinemethanol. This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows. category: pyridine-derivatives
A mixture of 6-methyl-2-pyridylmethanol (145 mg, 1.17 mmol) and sodium hydroxide (63 mg, 1.57 mmol) in benzene (15 mL) was heated to reflux for 3 hours with stirring under nitrogen atmosphere and then cooled to 25 C. followed by the addition of compound 133 (0.30 g, 0.785 mmol) at same temperature. The mixture was heated to reflux for 12 hours, concentrated under vacuum and diluted with water (20 mL). The mixture was then extracted with EtOAc (2*20 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (2*10 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue thus obtained was purified by column chromatography (70-80% EtOAc-Hexane) to afford the title compound E30 as a hygroscopic solid (257 mg, 70%). HPLC: Inertsil ODS 3V (250*4.6 mm) 5 microns [solvent A=0.01 M KH2PO4 (pH 7.0); solvent B=CH3CN], Gradient elution program: T/% B=0/60, 10/60, 25/80, 40/80, 45/60, 50/60; 268 nm, Rt 23.93 min, 99.14% purity; MS (CI): m/z 469 (M+, 100).
With the rapid development of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about 1122-71-0.
