In accordance with the concept of regioexhaustive functionalization, both 3-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and 2-bromo-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine were converted each time into the three possible carboxylic acids (1, 4 and 5 and 6, 9 and 12, respectively). 2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 2-bromo-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 2-iodo-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and 4-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine were selectively deprotonated and subsequently carboxylated at the respective 3-positions thus affording the acids 13-16. Finally, the N-pivaloyl-protected 2-amino-3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine was deprotonated at the 4-position and the intermediate trapped with iodine and benzaldehyde to provide, after amide cleavage, the aminopyridines 17 and 18.In a preceding article it was demonstrated how the concept of regioexhaustive functionalization 1 can be applied to 2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 2-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and 3-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine. 2 Taking advantage of the 'toolbox methods', 1 any of the each time three vacant positions was lithiated and the metal was subsequently replaced by an electrophilically delivered substituent (El), in general a carboxy group (Scheme 1, El = COOH).The present article describes the extension of this study to another chloro(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and to a bromo(trifluoromethyl)pyridine. In addition, the direct metalation of two further bromo(trifluoromethyl)pyridines, two iodo(trifluoromethyl)pyridines and of one aminochloro(trifluoromethyl)pyridine are reported.
