2-Arylpyridines were electrochem. ortho-alkylated by RBF3K, the reaction being performed in undivided cell in aqueous solutions catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2. Palladium-catalyzed electrochem. C-H functionalization reactions have emerged as attractive tools for organic synthesis. This process offers an alternative to conventional methods that require harsh chem. oxidants. However, this electrolysis requires divided cells to avoid catalyst deactivation by cathodic reduction Herein, we report the first example of palladium-catalyzed electrochem. C-H alkylation of arenes using undivided electrochem. cells in water, thereby providing a practical solution for the introduction of alkyl group into arenes. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-(m-Tolyl)pyridine (cas: 4373-61-9Synthetic Route of C12H11N).
2-(m-Tolyl)pyridine (cas: 4373-61-9) belongs to pyridine derivatives. Pyridines are an important class of heterocycles and occur in polysubstituted forms in many naturally occurring biologically active compounds, drug molecules and chiral ligands. Many analogues of pyridine are known where N is replaced by other heteroatoms . Substitution of one C–H in pyridine with a second N gives rise to the diazine heterocycles (C4H4N2), with the names pyridazine, pyrimidine, and pyrazine.Synthetic Route of C12H11N
