ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to novel 2-pyridylsilanes, processes for the same, an intermediates therefor and a process for producing an alcohol compound from the 2-pyridylsilanes.
2. Description of Related Art
In recent years solution(liquid) phase synthesis has been drawing attention since it appears to be superior to solid phase synthesis in that the former has versatile reactivity and scalability in addition to the advantages of cost and facile analysis. Solution phase synthesis, for example, solution phase combinatorial synthesis, however, has problems in that it requires a complicated separating method and a purifying method which are suitably designed for a product.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An object of the invention is to provide a 2-pyridylsilyl group, as a suitable auxiliary group, a phase tag, that facilitates liquid-liquid extraction for separation and purification of a compound introduced with such a group in a chemical process or sequential processes, particularly in solution phase combinatorial synthesis.
Another object of the invention is to provide a compound introduced with such a group that are useful in solution phase synthesis.
Further objects of the invention are to provide a process for introducing a 2-pyridylsilane group, as an auxiliary group, into a compound that will undergo desired chemical modifications or transformations, and
a process for eliminating the introduced group after desired modifications or transformations, alternatively,
a process for producing an alcohol compound that has desirably modified or transformed.
