Abstract

A palladium‐catalysed method for the acylation of ortho C–H bonds of pyridine N‐oxides using readily available benzyl halides and benzyl alcohols as the active acylating agents is described. This procedure provides a new approach to 2‐acylpyridine N‐oxides, which may be used as precursors for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
