Catalytic amination of 2-substituted pyridines with hydrazine derivatives

Org Lett. 2001 May 3;3(9):1351-4. doi: 10.1021/ol015731y.

Abstract

[reaction in text] Protected pyridylhydrazine derivatives were prepared in a one-step palladium-catalyzed amination reaction using chelating phosphine ligands. 2-Pyridyl chlorides, bromides, and triflates were effective electrophiles in these reactions. Di-tert-butyl hydrazodiformate was an excellent hydrazine substrate, and the resulting products were deprotected under mild conditions. Catalytic amination provides a direct route to protected bifunctional hydrazinopyridine linkers that are suitable for metal-bioconjugate syntheses.
