A new one-pot three-component condensation reaction for the synthesis of 2,3,4,6-tetrasubstituted pyridines
Abstract
The one-pot three-component condensation of a β-ketoester, ammonia and an alkynone in the presence of a Brønsted or Lewis acid or Amberlyst 15 ion exchange resin provided 2,3,6-trisubstituted or 2,3,4,6-tetrasubstituted pyridines directly in good yield and with total regiocontrol.
