Method for producing diarylpyridine derivatives

Abstract

The present invention relates to a novel method for producing diarylpyridine derivatives, and the object of the present invention is to provide a novel, industrially useful method. The present inventors developed a novel method for synthesizing pyridine rings without using palladium, a strong base, or a high-temperature reaction. In particular, they successfully developed a method that can be used to synthesize iminium salts as intermediates, synthesize cyano compounds from these iminium salts, and cyclize the cyano compounds into pyridines under very mild reaction conditions.
