2-Chloro-3-methyl-5-nitropyridine Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Chemical Properties
Light beige to cream colored crystalline powder
Uses
2-Chloro-3-methyl-5-nitropyridine is a nitropyridine compound, mainly used as an organic synthetic raw material or pharmaceutical intermediate.
Synthesis
21901-34-8
22280-56-4
Synthesis of compound 20: Compound 19 (3-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one, 16.60 g, 0.1 mol) was added to 80 mL of phosphoryl chloride (POCl3), heated to reflux and maintained for 8 hours. Upon completion of the reaction, excess phosphorus trichloride was removed by distillation. The reaction mixture was slowly poured into 300 g of crushed ice and a dark brown precipitate precipitated. The precipitate was collected by filtration to give 16.18 g of the target product 2-chloro-3-methyl-5-nitropyridine in 87.1% yield. The melting point of the product was 44.5-45.8 °C (literature value: 47-48 °C) [J.O.C., 1949, 14, 328-332].
