Abstract: | Halogenated pyridines II. Reactions of 3-halogenomethyl-pyridines . The facile syntheis of 3-halogenomethyl-pyridines provides an easy access to a variety of new 2, 6-di- and 2, 5, 6-trihalogented pyridines with various functional groups in the 3-position of the pyridine ring. Substitution reactions of the 3-halogenomethyl groups, their Friedel Crafts reactions, and nitrations of the halogenated pyridine ring are reported. |
