Abstract
The reactions of isomeric tetrachlorocyanopyridines with potassium ethylxanthate were studied. It was found that tetrachloro-2-cyanopyridine was converted successively into 4-mono- and then 3,4-bisethylxanthate derivatives. In the presence of potassium ethylxanthate the last derivative undergoes intramolecular cyclization with the formation of derivatives of 1,3-dithiolo[4,5-c]pyridine. In the case of other initial polychloropyridines processes involving substitution of the chlorine atoms by the ethylxanthate fragment, sometimes accompanied by the loss of COS molecules, were observed instead of heterocyclization.
