In the course of our recent studies on the reactivity of some 4-amino-2-pyridones [1-3] we accomplished the nitrosation of the N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-2-pyridone 2. The 3-nitroso product 2 would be useful for the preparation of 3,4-fused heterocyclic systems, e. g. in Traube-type syntheses [4]. The starting 6-methyl-1-phenethyl-4-(phenethylamino)-2(1H)-pyridinone (1) was prepared according to the known procedure [2,5]. To a solution of pyridone 1 (1.99 g, 6 mmol) in glacial acetic acid (5 ml) was added dropwise a solution of sodium nitrite (620 mg, 9 mmol) in water (8 ml) with stirring at 20-25 °C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h, before ice-cold water (10 ml) was added under stirring. The crystals that separated out were filtered off, washed twice with water and dried (2 h at 105°C) to afford the title compound 2. Yield: 1.48 g (69 %). Dark green needles.
