Methyl 4,6-dichloropyridine-3-carboxylate

Y. Ma and J. Liu

Abstract top

The title compound, C7H5Cl2NO2, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The bond lengths and angles in both molecules are within normal ranges. In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C-H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into layers parallel to the [010] plane.

Comment top

Methyl 4,6-dichloropyridine-3-carboxylate is a useful intermediate for the synthesis of different kinase inhibitors (Wallace et al., 2006; Bondinell et al., 2002). In this paper, we report the crystal structure of the title compound (I).

Compound (I) crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit (Fig. 1), all bond lengths and angles are normal and in a good agreement with those reported previously (McArdle et al., 1982). The dihedral angles between the planes of the methoxycarbonyl group (C1/C2/O1/O2; C8/C9/O3/O4) and pyridine rings in the two independent molecules are 10.9 (2) and 8.1 (4)°. In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into layers parallel to the b axis.

Experimental top

Methyl 4, 6-dichloropyridine-3-carboxylate was synthesized from Methyl 4, 6-dihydroxypyridine-3-carboxylate via chlorination with POCl3. The desired compound was obtained as a low melting yellow solid in 89% yield. Crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of a solution in a hexane/dichloromethane mixture (1: 4 v/v) at room temperature over a period of one week.

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in calculated positions, with C—H = 0.93 or 0.96 Å, and included in the final cycles of refinement using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 times Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
