6-(BENZYLOXY)NICOTINALDEHYDE

To a solution of [2-BENZYLOXY-5-BROMO-PYRIDINE] (1.64 g, 6.2 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (25 [ML, -78°C)] was added n-butyllithium (2.5 M in hexane, 2.61 mL, 1.05 equiv). After 1 h [AT-78°C, ] dimethylformamide (0.97 mL, 2 equiv) was added and the mixture stirred for 30 min. The reaction was quickly poured into a stirred solution of 5percent aqueous sodium bicarbonate (50 [ML)] and extracted with diethyl ether [(-3X).-THE ETHEREAL-WAS WASHED-WITH BRINE, DNeD-OVER MaGNESIUM~SULFATE, AND] concentrated to give 1.16 g (quant. ) which was used without purification. Mass spec.: 186.34 [(MH)] [+.]n-Butyl lithium (2. 5M, 95. 9 mmol, 38. 4 mL, 1. 05 eq.) was added dropwise via syringe to a stirred solution OF 2- (BENZYLOXY)-5-BROMOPYRIDINE (91. 3 mmol, 24. 1 G, 1. 0 eq.) in THF (260 mL, c = 0. 35) cooled to-78 °C. Upon completion of addition, the solution was allowed to continue stirring at the same low temperature for 1 hour. At this point, NN-dimethylformamide (183 mmol, 13. 4 G, 2. 0 eq.) was added dropwise as a solution in 5 mL THF. Stirring was continued at the same low temperature for a further 30 minutes at which point the reaction was quenched by addition of 5percent sodium bicarbonate. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel and extracted with ether (3 x 250 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant yellow oil was purified on a Biotage Sp4 65i over a gradient OF 0-50percent hexanes in ethyl acetate to afford the title compound (14. 1 g, 73percent). LRMS : 214 (M+H) +.

N, N-Dimethylformamide (6.60 mL, 85.5 mmol) was then added thereto at -78° C, and stirred for 30 minutes. Water and ethyl acetate were added to the reaction mixture, and the organic layer was separated after stirring for 10 minutes at room temperature. The organic layer was washed with water and saturated aqueous sodium chloride, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under a reduced pressure. The residue was purified by NH silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:heptane=1:7 then 1:5) to obtain the title compound (4.87 g, 40percent).To a solution of 2-benzyloxy-5-bromopyridine (15.1 g, 57.0 mmol) described in Manufacturing Example 12-1-1 in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (250 mL) were added dropwise n-butyl lithium (2.67 M n-hexane solution, 25.6 mL, 68.4 mmol) under nitrogen atmosphere on a dry ice-ethanol bath (-78° C.), which was stirred for 30 minutes at -78° C.
