✦ Synopsis


Cobalt‐Catalyzed Cycloaddition of Alkynes and Nitriles to Pyridines: A New Route to Pyridoxine (Vitamin B~6~)

A new synthesis of pyridoxine hydrochloride (1) based on a Co‐catalyzed cycloaddition of MeCN with substituted di(2‐propynyl) ethers (3 and 16) is described. The reaction sequences following cycloaddition and leading to 1 involve as key steps the rearrangement f the pyridine‐N‐oxide 6 to the 3‐hydroxypyridine 7 with Ac~2~O and a modified Curtius rearrangement of the acid 19 and subsequent diazotation and hydrolysis to the same pyridoxine precursor 7, respectively. The intermediate 7 is transformed to 1 by well‐known procedures.
