Pyridyl reactions with

Alky]-5-imino-3-methy -A2-l,2,4-thiadiazoIines react exotherm ally at 0°C with dibenzoy] or dimethoxy carbonylacetylenes in tetrahydrofuran to give the 2-alkylaminothiazoles in high yields (1564). The cycio addition reaction of 2-pyridyl isothiocyanates with 1-azirines results in the formation of 2-pyridylaminothiazoles (1565).

Substitution of a 2-pyridyl residue for the phenyl attached rectly to nitrogen affords a series of potent antihistamines, eparation of these compounds, too, is accomplished by a series alkylation reactions. It is further probable that the order the reaction can be readily interchanged. Thus, alkylation 2-aminopyridine with the chloroethyldimethylamine side chain ads to the diamine, 59. Alkylation with benzyl chloride af-rds tripelenamine (60) reaction with p-methoxybenzyl chloride ads to pyrilamine (61), °... 

Initialiy, 4-bromobenzyl-cyanide is reacted with sodium amide and 2-chloropyridine to give bromophenyl-pyridyl acetonitrile. This is then reacted with sodium amide then dimethyi amino ethyl chloride to give 4.bromophenyl-dimethylamlnoethyl-pyrldyi acetonitrlie. This intermediate is then hydrolyzed and decarboxylated to bromphenirame using 80% H2SO4 at 140°-150°C for 24 hours. The brompheniramine maieate may be made by reaction with maleic acid in ethanol followed by recrystallization from pentanoi. 

The 0 -phenyl-0 -piperidyl-(2)-acetic acid methylester of BP 135° to 137°C under 0.6 mm pressure is obtained in theoretical yield by hydrogenation of 50 g of 0 -phenyl-0 -pyridyl-(2)-acetic acid methylester in glacial acetic acid in the presence of 1 g of platinum catalyst at room temperature, while taking up 6 hydrogen atoms. Reaction with HCI gives the hydrochloride. Resolution of stereoisomers is described in U.S. Patent 2,957,880. 

According to U.S. Patent 2,676,964 to 1.0 mol of potassium amide in 3 liters of liquid ammonia, is added 1.0 mol of 2-benzylpyridine. After 15 minutes, 1.1 mols of 3reaction product decomposed with water and ether extracted. The ether layer is dried over Sodium sulfate and after evaporation the residue is distilled, giving the 3-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-N,N-dimethylpropylamine, BP 139°-142°C/1-2 mm. The maleate is produced by reaction with maleic acid. 

In a study directed to the analysis of the role of Fe and the generation of H2O2 in Escherichia coli (McCormick et al. 1998), hydroxyl radicals were specihcally trapped by reaction with ethanol to give the a-hydroxyethyl radical. This formed a stable adduct with a-(4-pyridyl-l-oxide)-iV-t-butyl nitroxide that was not formed either by superoxide or hydroxyl radicals. The role of redox-reactive iron is to use EPR to analyze the EPR-detectable ascorbyl radicals. 

The zinc complex of 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonate forms coordination polymers in reaction with either 2,5-bis(4-ethynylpyridyl)furan or l,2-bis(4-ethynylpyridyl)benzene. The X-ray crystal structures demonstrate an isotactic helical structure for the former and a syndio-tactic structure for the latter in the solid state. Low-temperature 1H and 19F NMR studies gave information on the solution structures of oligomers. Chiral polymers were prepared from L2Zn where L = 3-((trifluoromethyl)hydroxymethylene)-(+)-camphorate. Reaction with 2,5-bis(4-ethy-nylpyridyl)furan gave a linear zigzag structure and reaction with tris(4-pyridyl)methanol a homo-chiral helical polymer.479... 

Since the nitrogen in pyridine is electron attracting it seemed reasonable to predict that the trihalopyridynes would also show the increased electrophilic character necessary to form adducts with aromatic hydrocarbons under similar conditions to those employed with the tetra-halogeno-benzynes. The availability of pentachloropyridine suggested to us and others that the reaction with w-butyl-lithium should lead to the formation of tetrachloro-4-pyridyl-lithium 82 84>. This has been achieved and adducts obtained, although this system is complicated by the ease with which pentachloropyridine undergoes nucleophilic substitution by tetrachloro-4-pyridyl lithium. Adducts of the type (45) have been isolated in modest yield both in the trichloro- and tribromo- 58) series. 

Perhydropyrido[l,2- ]pyrazin-l-one was prepared in the reaction of methyl pipecolinate and ethylene imine in boiling EtOH <19951JSP5461047>. Cyclocondensation of ethyl 2-amino-2-(2-pyridyl)acetate with DMAD, followed by treatment of reaction mixture with NaOMe, gave the 2-(l-methoxycarbonyl)-4-oxo-47/-pyrido[l,2- ]pyrazin-3-yl)acetate <1996JHC639>.
