Abstract

Two metal-free syntheses of 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyridines 10am and 16aj are described. N,N,6-Trimethyl-4-(substituted)pyridin-2-amines 10 were prepared from aryl or heteroaryl methyl ketones which were transformed with N,N-dimethylacetamide dimethyl acetal (DMADMA) into enaminones 4am, followed by treatment with ammonium acetate to give (Z)-3-amino-1-(substituted)but-2-en-1-ones 5am. These were treated with DMADMA under microwave irradiation in a closed vessel at 130°C, to give via intermediates 79 the final products 10am. N2,N2,N4,N4-Tetramethyl-6-(substituted) pyridine-2,4-diamines 16aj were prepared in a one-pot synthesis from the corresponding carboxamides 11aj by treatment with an excess of DMADMA in a closed vessel under microwave irradiation to give via intermediates 12aj to 15aj the final products 16aj. X-Ray single crystal diffractometry studies of the enaminones 5c, 5g, 5i, 5j, and 5m and 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyridines 16a, 16b, 16g, 16i, and 16j were consistent with the expected structures.
