Abstract

Abstract The reaction between methyl 2-pyridyl sulfoxide (1) with Grignard reagents afforded 2, 2′-bipyridine (2) in moderate yield. The reaction is considered to involve initial ligand exchange to generate 2-pyridylmagnesium halide which in the subsequent step attacks the original sulfoxide to form the σ-sulfurane that undergoes ligand coupling to afford 2. The reaction of t-butyl 2-pyridyl sulfoxide (3) with C6H5MgBr, however, gave only 2- ...
