An effective and practical synthetic route to methyl 2-methoxy-6-methylaminopyridine-3-carboxylate (7), the key intermediate of 5-bromo-2-methoxy-6-methylaminopyridine-3-carboxylic acid (1), from 2,6-dichloro-3-trifluoromethylpyridine (12) was undertaken. Process improvements were highlighted by regioselectivity of 12 with a nitrogen nucleophile and conversion of the 3-trifluoromethyl group into the methoxycarbonyl group. The reaction of 12 with N-benzylmethylamine provided the 6-(N-benzyl-N-methyl)aminopyridine 26a and the regioisomer 26b in &gt;98:&lt;2 ratio in a quantitative yield. Treatment of 2-methoxy-6-methylamino-3-trifluoropyridine (14a) with a large excess of sodium methoxide followed by acid hydrolysis gave the pyridine-3-carboxylic ester 7 in an excellent yield. The potential application of this reaction is also described.
