Methyl 6-methylnicotinate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

To a stirred solution of compound I (40 g; 290 mmol; 1 eq) in methanol (0.75 L) was added sulfuric acid (40 mL) and the resulting mixture was heated at reflux for 17 h. The mixture was then evaporated to dryness and the pH was adjusted to 7 using saturated ice-cold aqueous NaHCO3 solution and solid NaHCO3. The organic components were extracted from the aqueous layer with ethyl acetate (3 x 500 mL) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and the solvent was removed in vacuo to afford the title compound (33 g, 75percent) as an off-white solid. 1H NMR (CDC13) ö 9.06 (s, 1H), 8.13 (dd, 1H, J = 2, 8 Hz), 7.20 (d, 1H, J = 8 Hz), 3.89 (s, 3H), 2.58 (s, 3H). LCMS: m/z = 152.4 [M+Hj , RT = 2.36 minutes, (Program P1, Column W).

Uses

It is used in the treatment of CNS disorders using D-amino acid oxidase and D-aspartate oxidase inhibitors.
