Alkylation of 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-cyano-6-methyl-4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methylpyridine at the methylene group

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

The reactivity of the 1-triazolyl- and 1-imidazolyl-substituted methylene groups at position 4 of pyridine ring toward alkyl halides is described. Nitrogen heterocycles attached to the methylene group, as well as a 3-cyano group effectively promoted the alkylation, offering a convenient method for constructing structurally diverse molecules that may present pharmaceutical interest.
