General description

Ethyl 6-chloropyridine-3-carboxylate (Ethyl-6-chloronicotinate, E-6-ClN) undergoes direct amidation on reacting with benzylamine in the presence lanthanum trifluoromethanesulfonate La(OTf)3. The structural and physicochemical properties of E-6-ClN have been investigated based on its spectroscopic data, time-dependent density functional theory and density of state diagrams.

Application

Ethyl 6-chloropyridine-3-carboxylate (Ethyl 6-chloronicotinate) may be used in the preparation of ethyl 5-{[5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridin-2-yl]ethynyl}pyridine-2-carboxylate by reacting with 2-[6-(ethynyl)pyridin-3-yl]-1H-benzimidazole under microwave irradiation.

Lanthanum trifluoromethanesulfonate is an effective single-component catalyst for synthesizing a variety of amides directly from esters and amines under mild conditions. Highly selective amidation of esters and amines, as well as catalyst-controlled amidation of esters, demonstrated the effectiveness of the
