Abstract
A reliable and synthetically useful strategy for the selective single or double metalation of 6,6'-dibromo-2,2'-bipyridine via lithium-halogen exchange is discussed. Experimental conditions for the optimal formylation of the singly and doubly lithiated intermediates are outlined as well as unequivocal X-ray crystallographic evidence for the regiochemistry of a competing deprotonation pathway.
