The Chichibabin pyridine synthesis (/ ˈ tʃ iː tʃ iː ˌ b eɪ b iː n /) is a method for synthesizing pyridine rings. The reaction involves the condensation reaction of aldehydes, ketones, α,β-Unsaturated carbonyl compounds, or any combination of the above, with ammonia. [1] It was reported by Aleksei Chichibabin in 1924.
Chichibábin is associated with the development of several important organic chemical reactions. One is a novel terpyridine synthesis, the Chichibabin pyridine synthesis. The other reactions are the Bodroux-Chichibabin aldehyde synthesis and the Chichibabin reaction.
The Chichibabin reaction (pronounced ' (chē')-chē-bā-bēn) is a method for producing 2-aminopyridine derivatives by the reaction of pyridine with sodium amide. It was reported by Aleksei Chichibabin in 1914. [1] The following is the overall form of the general reaction:
It may also be obtained as a co-product of pyridine synthesis from acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, and ammonia via Chichibabin pyridine synthesis. Approximately 9,000,000 kilograms were produced worldwide in 1989. It has also been prepared by dehydrogenation of 3-methylpiperidine, derived from hydrogenation of 2-Methylglutaronitrile. [2]
The Bouveault aldehyde synthesis (also known as the Bouveault reaction) is a one-pot substitution reaction that replaces an alkyl or aryl halide with a formyl group using a N,N-disubstituted formamide. [1] [2] For primary alkyl halides this produces the homologous aldehyde one carbon longer. For aryl halides this produces the corresponding ...
The Kröhnke method in this synthesis was crucial due to the failure of other cyclization techniques such as the Glaser coupling or Ullmann coupling. Figure 13. Another use of the Kröhnke pyridine synthesis was the generation of a number of 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyridines that were investigated as potential topoisomerase 1 inhibitors.
With pyridine as a base and solvent, refluxing conditions are required. [7] However, with the addition of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) as a catalyst, the reaction can take place at room temperature. [8] With some acids, this reaction can take place even in the absence of an α-amino group. This reaction should not be confused with the Dakin ...
One way to increase the number of points of diversity is by combining a reaction with 2-Methyleneaziridine with the Bucherer–Bergs reaction in a one-pot synthesis. First, the reaction of 2-Methyleneaziridine 1 with Grignard reagent, catalytic Cu(I), and R 2-X causes the 2-Methyleneaziridine to ring open and form a ketimine 2.
