Abstract

The optimization of a multicomponent reaction, to prepare triarylpyridines (triphenylpyridine), and which includes 17 examples where each aryl substituent is distinct (non-symmetric pyridine) is reported. The non-symmetric triarylpyridine aqrar forming reaction involves the sequential addition of two different acetophenones to a benzylamine in DMF in the presence of copper (I) iodide (20 mol %), methanolic ammonia (2 equiv.), and oxygen. The optimized method was used to give twenty five different triarylpyridines in 43–91% yield, including products with a thiophene substituent and bipyridines.
