Synthesis of chloromethyl methyl ether as a solution of toluene: To a solution of dimethoxymethane (44.3 ml, 0.50 mol, 1 equiv) and Zn(OAc)2 (9.2 mg, 0.01%) in toluene (133 ml) was added acetyl chloride (35.5 ml, 0.50 mol, 1 equiv). During the next 15 min, the reaction mixture warmed slowly at T = 318 K, and then cooled to ambient temperature over 3 h. The progress was again monitored until NMR analysis indicated complete conversion. The solution of MOMCl in toluene prepared using this stoichiometry is approximately 2.1 M.
Synthesis of N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide: 2-amino- 4-chloropyridine (20.1 g, 156 mmol. 1 equiv) and 4-toluenesulfonyl chloride (32.4 g, 168 mmol, 1.1 equiv) were dissolved in dry pyridine (70 ml) and heated at T = 353 K for 5 h. After cooling to room temperature, water was added and the compound N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide dropped down as a beige solid with high analytical quality, which was filtered off and washed with water (30.6 g, 70.8%).
Synthesis of N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)- N-(methoxymethyl)- 4-methylbenzenesulfon- amide: Under a nitrogen atmosphere, N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)- 4-methylbenzene- sulfonamide (20.0 g, 71 mmol, 1 equiv) was added to a suspension of NaH (4.2 g, 104 mmol, 1.5 equiv) in anhydrous THF (200 ml) with stirring. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred for 20 min, and then the solution of methoxymethyl chloride in toluene (52.1 ml, 1.5 equiv) was slowly added. The mixture was stirred for 3 h and then an aqueous
of NH4Cl was added. After separation, the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated. After treatment with hexane, the compound N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)- N-(methoxymethyl)-4- methylbenzene sulfonamide was obtained as the main product of the reaction (15.8 g, 69.7%) and dropped down as a pale yellow solid, whereas the compound N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)-N-tosylacetamide was isolated from the filtrate as the byproduct (15.4%). Suitable crystals of the compound N-(4-chloropyridin-2-yl)-N– (methoxymethyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide for X-ray were obtained by slow evaporation at T = 298 K of a solution of EtOAc.Hydrogen atoms were placed at calculated positions with C—H = 0.95 Å (aromatic) or 0.98–0.99 Å (sp3 C-atom). They were refined in the riding-model approximation with isotropic displacement parameters (set at 1.2–1.5 times of the Ueq of the parent atom). The
was determined on the basis of 1176 Friedel pairs.In recent years, compounds with the 2-aminopyridine moiety exhibited interesting biological activities like the 2-alkylaminopyridinyl or 2-acylaminopyridinyl imidazole derivatives as p38α mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38α MAPK) inhibitors. The N-protected 4-chloropyridine is an important precursor to block the nucleophilic and basic properties of the amino-group in the C2 position of the pyridine ring. The analysis of the shows that the both aromatic C19—H– and C18—H-groups of the 4-chloropyridine ring of one molecule interact with the oxygen-atom O10 of the sulfonyl group of another molecule by the building of a bidentate intermolecular hydrogen bond C—H···O, whereas the O10···H19 distance is 2.48 Å. The length of the second hydrogen bond O10···H18 is 2.50 Å. Furthermore, the aromatic C16—H group of the 4-chloropyridine ring forms an intermolecular C16—H16···O13 hydrogen bond (2.56 Å) to the oxygen atom O13 of the methoxymethyl moiety of a third molecule. An additional hydrogen bond was observed between the methyl-group C7—H3 of the 4-methylphenylsulfonylring and the oxygen-atom O9 of the sulfonyl group of a further molecule, whereas the O9_a···H7C distance is 2.59 Å. The 4-methylphenylsulfonyl ring forms a dihedral angle of 40.7 (2)° to the 4-chloropyridine ring.

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. |

In recent years, compounds with the 2-aminopyridine moiety exhibited interesting biological activities like the 2-alkylaminopyridinyl or 2-acylaminopyridinyl imidazole derivatives as p38α mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38α MAPK) inhibitors. The N-protected 4-chloropyridine is an important precursor to block the nucleophilic and basic properties of the amino-group in the C2 position of the pyridine ring. The analysis of the crystal structure shows that the both aromatic C19—H– and C18—H-groups of the 4-chloropyridine ring of one molecule interact with the oxygen-atom O10 of the sulfonyl group of another molecule by the building of a bidentate intermolecular hydrogen bond C—H···O, whereas the O10···H19 distance is 2.48 Å. The length of the second hydrogen bond O10···H18 is 2.50 Å. Furthermore, the aromatic C16—H group of the 4-chloropyridine ring forms an intermolecular C16—H16···O13 hydrogen bond (2.56 Å) to the oxygen atom O13 of the methoxymethyl moiety of a third molecule. An additional hydrogen bond was observed between the methyl-group C7—H3 of the 4-methylphenylsulfonylring and the oxygen-atom O9 of the sulfonyl group of a further molecule, whereas the O9_a···H7C distance is 2.59 Å. The 4-methylphenylsulfonyl ring forms a dihedral angle of 40.7 (2)° to the 4-chloropyridine ring.
