Abstract: Improved methods of synthesizing 6-aryl-4-aminopicolinates, such as arylalkyl and alkyl 4-amino-3-chloro-6-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2-carboxylates and arylalkyl and alkyl 4-amino-3-chloro-5-fluoro-6-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2-carboxylates, are described herein. The improved methods include a direct Suzuki coupling step, which eliminates the protection/de-protection steps in the current chemical process, and therefore eliminates or reduces various raw materials, equipment and cycle time as well as modification of other process conditions including use of crude AP, use of ABA-diMe, and varying pH, catalyst concentration, solvent composition, and/or workup procedures. This includes synthesis of 2-aryl-6-aminopyrimidine-4-carboxylates.

Abstract: This application relates to efficient and economical synthetic chemical processes for the preparation of pesticidal thioethers. Further, the present application relates to certain novel compounds useful in the preparation of pesticidal thioethers. Specifically, this application relates to a process for the preparation of 3-chloro-1H-pyrazol-4-amine and salts thereof. More particularly, this application relates to a process for the preparation of 3-chloro-1H-pyrazol-4-amine and salts thereof by halogenating and reducing 4-nitropyrazole.
