4-Methoxypyridine, 1 X 5 mL (460621-5ML)

4-Methoxypyridine has been prepared from 4-methoxypyridine-N-oxide, via catalytic hydrogenation. Ortho lithiation of 4-methoxypyridine using mesityllithium as the metalating base has been studied. 4-Methoxypyridine was used as a starting reagent for the stereocontrolled synthesis of (±)-pumiliotoxin C and (±)-lasubine II. It was also used in an efficient construction of dihyropyridin-4-ones, which serves as potential ligands for neuronal nicotinic acetycholine receptors.
