S-Alkylation followed by heterocyclization of trifluoromethyl-3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethiones was used for preparation of libraries of S-alkyl trifluoromethylpyridines and thieno[2,3-b]pyridines. The S-alkylation (in water--DMF mixtures) was successful for all 18 alkylating agents employed (yields typically > 50%). S-Alkyl derivatives were further converted to corresponding thieno[2,3-b]pyridines via heterocyclization in base conditions (yields > 65%). Structures of new compounds were elucidated by a combination of IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis and were confirmed by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

A series of novel pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine and pyrimidine functionalized 1,2,3-triazole derivatives 8a-g and 9a-g were prepared starting from 6-trifluoromethylpyridine-2(1H)one 2 via selective O-alkylation, followed by cyclisation using hydrazine hydrate to obtain 6-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-amine 4. Compound 4 was diazotized followed by reaction with sodium azide, resulted in 3-azido-6-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine 5. Compound 5 was further cyclized with N-/O-propargylated pyrimidine derivatives under Sharpless conditions and obtained compounds 6 and 7, respectively.

A new strategy for the synthesis of poly-substituted 3-H, 3-F, and 3-trifluoromethyl pyridines based on C-F bond breaking of the anionically activated fluoroalkyl group is described. A series of 2,6-disubstituted 4-amino pyridines were prepared through this domino process in high yields under noble metal-free conditions, making this method a supplement to pyridine synthesis.

A practical preparation of methyl 2-methoxy-6-methylaminopyridine-3-carboxylate from 2,6-dichloro-3-trifluoromethylpyridine.

An effective and practical synthetic route to methyl 2-methoxy-6-methylaminopyridine-3-carboxylate (7), the key intermediate of 5-bromo-2-methoxy-6-methylaminopyridine-3-carboxylic acid (1), from 2,6-dichloro-3-trifluoromethylpyridine (12) was undertaken. Process improvements were highlighted by regioselectivity of 12 with a nitrogen nucleophile and conversion of the 3-trifluoromethyl group into the methoxycarbonyl group. The reaction of 12 with N-benzylmethylamine provided the 6-(N-benzyl-N-methyl)aminopyridine 26a and the regioisomer 26b in >98:<2 ratio in a quantitative yield.

3-Cyano-6-(2'-thienyl)-4-trifluoromethylpyridine-2(1H)-thione (2) was prepared and reacted with chloroacetone or phenacyl bromide to yield the 2-acetyl or benzoyl-3-amino-6-(2'-thienyl)-4-trifluoromethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridines (3a, b). In contrast, the reaction of 2 with chloroacetamide or its N-aryl derivatives gave the corresponding 2-carbamoylmethyl thiopyridines 4a-c. Upon treatment of these educts with K2CO3 or C2H5ONa in ethanol, they underwent intramolecular Thorpe-Ziegler cyclization to afford 3-amino-2-carbamoyl-6-(2'-thienyl)-4-trifluoromethyl-thieno[2,3-b]pyridine (5a) and its N-aryl analogs 5b, c.
