2-Chloro-3-cyano-4,6-dimethylpyridine Use and Manufacturing

Step 1: 2-Chloro-3-cyano-4, 6-dimethylpyridine: A stirred mixture of 3-cyano-4, 6-dimethyl- 2-hydroxypyridine (4.35 g, 29.39 mmol) and phosphorous pentachloride (6.92 g, 33.21 mmol) is heated to 120°C. The reaction mixture becomes clear and is stirred for an additional 1 hr. It is then poured onto ice/water (250 mL) and allowed to stand for 30 min. The solution is neutralized with sodium bicarbonate (pH 6) and extracted with dichloromethane (400 mL). The separated organic layer is dried, filtered and concentrated to yield 2-chloro-3-cyano-4, 6- dimethylpyridine (4.60 g, 94percent yield) as a tan solid containing ca 15percent impurity. LC/MS: MS m/e = 167/169 (M + H) ; RT 2.98 min; NMR (CDCl3, 8 ppm) 7.08 (1H, s), 2.57 (3H, s), 2.55 (3H, s).2-Chloro-4, 6-dimethylnicotinonitrile4, 6-Dimethyl-2-oxo-l, 2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (5g, 34mmol) was added to phosphorus oxychloride (20ml). The reaction was stirred at reflux for 2 h, after which it was seen complete. Volatiles were removed and the residue triturated with petrol.The resultant solid was filtered off and washed with hexane, and dried to give a pure white solid (5.1g, 90percent). δ4, 6-Dimethyl-2-oxo-l, 2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile
