Abstract

Aminopyridines are important in various fields of chemistry. They have been used as acyl transfer reagents in organic chemistry1, 2 and as ligands in inorganic and organometallic chemistry. 3-7 Additionally, aminopyridine derivatives have been used as fluorescent dyes8, 9 and are biologically important as central nervous system stimulants. 10 Current methods for the preparation of aminopyridines generally involve nucleophilic aromatic substitution ...
