Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to a method for preparing 2-aminopyridine compounds based on a dearomatization-aromatization strategy, belonging to the field of organic synthesis technology. Background Technology
[0002] Pyridine, as an important class of nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocycles, is widely found in natural products, drug molecules, and functional materials. Selective modification of the CH bond in pyridine can significantly enhance its functional diversity; therefore, the selective functionalization of the CH bond in pyridine has always been a hot research topic in organic synthesis. Among them, 2-aminopyridine is one of the most common pyridine-substituted molecules in small drug molecules and is considered the simplest building block for synthesizing active heterocyclic molecules. Examples include isopropiram for treating neuropathic pain, tenoxicam for relieving non-inflammatory pain, the microtubule polymerization inhibitor ABT-751, and the CFTR protein regulator Lumacaftor. Furthermore, both the pyridine nitrogen atom and the amino group in 2-aminopyridine are nucleophilic and are often used as important reaction precursors in organic synthesis to prepare heterocyclic structures such as pyridine-imidazolium and pyridotriazole, serving as crucial building blocks for constructing complex nitrogen-containing molecules.
[0003] Currently, methods for constructing 2-aminopyridine via the direct amination of the ortho-CH bond of pyridine mainly use pyridine N-oxides or pyridine salts as reactants, and these methods require pre-activation of pyridine. However, methods for synthesizing 2-aminopyridine directly via the ortho-CH bond of pyridine without pre-activation are quite limited. Therefore, exploring a simple and efficient method for the direct amination of unactivated pyridine via the ortho-CH bond is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
