A Novel Convenient Synthesis of Pyridinyl and Quinolinyl Triflates and Tosylates via One-Pot Diazotization of Aminopyridines and Aminoquinolines in Solution

Abstract

The first effective and simple method for the direct one-pot transformation of 2-, 3-, and 4-aminopyridines, 2,6-diaminopyridines, and 2-aminoquinoline into the corresponding pyridinyl and quinolinyl trifluoromethanesulfonates and tosylates in solvents was developed. The procedure involves diazotization of the heterocyclic amines with sodium nitrite in mixed hexane–DMSO or hexane–DMF solutions in the presence of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid.

Key words

diazotization - pyridine - quinoline - triflate - tosylate
