Development of a Safe and Economical Synthesis of Methyl 6-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinate: Trifluoromethylation on Kilogram Scale
2013
Reported herein is a safe and economical synthesis of methyl 6-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinate, an intermediate in the synthesis of novel anti-infective agents. The key to this process is the trifluoromethylation of an aryl iodide using an inexpensive methyl chlorodifluoroacetate (MCDFA)/KF/CuI system, with an emphasis on the development work which led to this effective process.
