The reaction of the disodium derivative of benzophenone with 2-bromopyridine

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The reaction of the disodium derivative of benzophenone with 2-bromopyridine in liquid ammonia results in the introduction of a diphenylhydroxymethyl group in the γ-position of the heterocyclic ring, followed by ammonolysis of the bromine in the resulting 2-bromodihydropyridine. The anomalous nature of this reaction results from the nature of the organometallic compound.
