New facile experimental procedures for the preparation of 2,3,4,6-tetrasubstituted pyridines in a single synthetic step have been developed. Thus, an enamino ester and alkynone react by Michael addition-cyclodehydration in a heterocyclisation process that is catalysed by acetic acid, Amberlyst 15 ion exchange resin, zinc(II) bromide or ytterbium(III) triflate. The new one-step Bronsted or Lewis acid-catalysed Bohlmann-Rahtz reaction is a simple, direct and highly expedient method for the synthesis of pyridines that proceeds at a lower reaction temperature and avoids the need to isolate reaction intermediates.
Synthesis of pyridines and pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines by the Lewis acid catalysed Bohlmann-Rahtz heteroannulation reaction

Lewis acids catalyse the Bohlmann-Rahtz heteroannulation reaction to generate highly functionalised pyridines from enamino esters and alkynones in a single synthetic step. Of the catalysts studied, ytterbium(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate and zinc(II) bromide are the two most efficient for the synthesis of pyridines and pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines, from ethyl β-aminocrotonate or 2,6-di-aminopyrimidin-4-one respectively, in up to 94% yield.
