- Logistic flexibility in the preparation of isomeric halopyridinecarboxylic acids
-
Although there are many conceivable ways to funtionalize, and specifically carboxylate, 2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine optionally at all three vacant positions, it is more straightforward to prepare only the 2-chloro-4- (trifluoromethyl)pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (1) from this precursor and the other 6-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-2- and -3-carboxylic acids (2 and 3) from a different one, viz. 5-bromo-2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine. In the same manner, it proved more convenient to convert 5-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl) pyridine in only two of the corresponding acids (6 and 7) and to make the third one (8) from 3-bromo-5-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine as an alternative starting material. All model substrates for functionalization were readily accessible from the correspondingly substituted chloroiodopyridine through heavy halogen displacement by in situ generated (trifluoromethyl)copper.

- Recommendable routes to trifluoromethyl-substituted pyridine- and quinolinecarboxylic acids
-
As part of a case study, rational strategies for the preparation of all ten 2-, 3-, or 4-pyridinecarboxylic acids and all nine 2-, 3-, 4-, or 8-quinolinecarboxylic acids bearing trifluoromethyl substituents at the 2-, 3-, or 4-position were elaborated. The trifluoromethyl group, if not already present in the precursor, was introduced either by the deoxygenative fluorination of suitable carboxylic acids with sulfur tetrafluoride or by the displacement of ring-bound bromine or iodine by trifluoromethylcopper generated in situ. The carboxy function was produced by treatment of organolithium or organomagnesium intermediates, products of halogen/metal or hydrogen/ metal permutation, with carbon dioxide.
