Synthesis of 2-substituted pyridines from pyridine N-oxides

Abstract: The synthesis of substituted pyridines has drawn the attention of many chemists due to their importance as building blocks for biologically active compounds and materials. This mini-review focuses on recent developments relating to the synthesis of substituted pyridines from pyridine N-oxides, along with their interesting mechanism aspects. New developments including alkenylation, alkynylation, alkylation, arylation, amination and cyanation are discussed.

“…Biocatalysis is a useful supplementary technology for the chemical industry in the reactions that are not easily conducted in the organic chemistry methods 1 7 . For example, the reactions involved in the formation of 2-substituted pyridines and their derivatives from pyridine N -oxides are useful synthetic methods; however, these methods require strict conditions for high product yields 9 10 . In microorganisms, the pyridine 2-hydroxylation step is specifically catalyzed by a molybdenum-containing protein, such as nicotinic acid dehydrogenase (EC1.17.1.5) in nicotinic degradation pathway, and nicotine hydroxylase (EC1.5.99.4) and Spm ( Figure 2a ) in nicotine degradation pathways 11 12 .…”

“…3-aminopyridine is used as an intermediate for agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and colourants [13,15], and is also listed as a plant growth regulator [16]. Derivatives of 3-aminopyridine are used as luminescent and liquid crystal materials as well as in photosensitizer and metal complex chemistry.…”

“…Pyridine- N -oxides preactivated with acylating agents are ideal substrates in the reactions with a broad range of nucleophiles offering a valuable synthetic alternative to the nucleophilic substitution in 2-halopyridines and transition-metal-catalyzed reactions. Nucleophilic displacement in 2-halopyridines is the strongly substrate-dependent reaction and typically requires harsh conditions, resulting in limited substrate scope and low functional group tolerance. To the contrary, addition of a nucleophile to an activated pyridine- N -oxide (generally prepared in situ) and the subsequent deoxygenative aromatization usually proceed efficiently under mild conditions, which improves functional group tolerance and overall applicability of the process.…”
