Abstract
The Grignard reaction of fused ring cyanopyridine derivatives 1a‐d with methyl‐ and phenylmagnesium bromide yielded the corresponding acylpyridine compounds 2a‐d and 3a‐d. Furopyridine N‐oxides 4a‐d were converted into the compounds having a phenyl group at the α‐position to the ring nitrogen 5a‐d. Reduction of 1a‐d and the carboxylic esters 6a‐d with diisobutylaluminium hydride yielded the corresponding amines 7a‐d and aldehydes 9a‐d. The aldehydes were converted to nitroethanol derivatives 10a‐d by condensation with nitromethane and acrylic ester compounds 11a‐d by the Wittig‐Horner reaction with methyl diethyl phosphonoacetate.
