A number of 3-R-5-nitropyridines were synthesized and their reactions with various types of nucleophiles were investigated. The reaction outcome depends on the nature of a nucleophile: in case of anionic O-, N- and S-nucleophiles the previously unreported substitution of non-activated nitro group occurred while carbon nucleophiles underwent dearomatization of the pyridine ring with the formation of products of 1,2- and 1,4-addition.

Herein, we report the meta-nitration of arenes bearing ortho/para directing group(s) using the iridium-catalyzed C?H borylation reaction followed by a newly developed copper(II)-catalyzed transformation of the crude aryl pinacol boronate esters into the corresponding nitroarenes in a one-pot fashion. This protocol allows the synthesis of meta-nitrated arenes that are tedious to prepare or require multistep synthesis using the existing methods. The reaction tolerates a wide array of ortho/para-directing groups, such as ?F, ?Cl, ?Br, ?CH3, ?Et, ?iPr ?OCH3, and ?OCF3. It also provides regioselective access to the nitro derivatives of π-electron-deficient heterocycles, such as pyridine and quinoline derivatives. The application of this method is demonstrated in the late-stage modification of complex molecules and also in the gram-scale preparation of an intermediate en route to the FDA-approved drug Nilotinib. Finally, we have shown that the nitro product obtained by this strategy can also be directly converted to the aniline or hindered amine through Baran's amination protocol.
