Abstract

Treatment of 2-chloropyridine with LDA and the Weinreb amide of benzoic acid afforded three unusual products, namely N-methylbenzamide, 2-chloropyridine-3-methanol, and the ring-opened addition product. This same final product could also be obtained from 2-chloro-3-benzoylpyridine on treatment with LDA. Mechanistic insight for the formation of these products is provided.
