Facile Synthesis of Nicotinic Acid Derivatives with Unsymmetrical Substitution Patterns |
| |
Abstract: | Abstract Two novel methods for synthesis of nicotinic acid derivatives with unsymmetrical substitution patterns were presented via ketene dithioacetals. The ketene N,S-acetals 2 reacted with β-ketoesters or β-cyanoesters to give 4-amino-5-cyano-2-alkyl-6-methylthio-nicotinic acid derivatives 3 or 2,4-diamino-5-cyano-6-methylthio-nicotinic acid ethyl ester 4. However, 6-amino-5-cyano-2-alkyl-4-methylthio-nicotinic acid esters 6 were obtained by the reaction of the ketene dithioacetals 1 and β-amino-crotonates. |
