The invention relates to a process for preparing 4-(4′-carboxyphenyl)pyridine, which comprises oxidizing a 4-phenyl-N-acyldihydropyridine of the formula (II)
1
where
R
1
is a bulky alkyl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl or alkoxy group and
R
2
is a straight-chain or branched, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl radical having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms,
by means of an oxidizing agent selected from the group consisting of permanganates, nitric acid, Cr(VI) compounds, oxygen and air to give the compound of the formula (I)
2
where M is a cation.
本发明涉及一种制备4-(4'-羧基苯基)
吡啶的方法,其包括通过使用来自
高锰酸盐、
硝酸、Cr(VI)化合物、
氧气和空气的氧化剂,氧化式(II)的4-苯基-N-酰基
二氢吡啶,其中R1是一个笨重的烷基、烷基芳基、芳基烷基或烷氧基团,而R2是一种具有1至8个碳原子的直链或支链、取代或未取代的烷基基团,以得到式(I)2的化合物,其中M是一个阳离子。
