Abstract

The synthesis and metallation of 4-methoxypicolin-and 2-methoxyisonicotin-anilides as a way of regiospecific transformation of picolinic and isonicotinic acids into 2, 3, 4- trisubstituted pyridines, is described. The resulted C3-alkylated derivatives underwent smooth acid-catalysed conversion into the corresponding pyridones.
