Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 71 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF AN AMINOPYRIDINE COMPOUND WHICH COMPRISES REACTING A PYRIDINE COMPOUND, RINGSUBSTITUTED WITH AT LEAST HONE DISPLACEABLE SUBSTITUENT SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF CHLORO, BROMO, FLUORO, IODO, N+2, -OSO2R, AND -SR+2, WHEREIN EACH R INDEPENDENTLY REPRESENTS HYDROGEN, PHENYL OR A LOWERALKYL RADICAL OF FROM ONE TO ABOUT 4 CARBON ATOMS, INCLUSIVE, WITH AN ALKALI METAL CYANATE IN THE PRESENCE OF A HIGH DIELECTRIC-APROTIC SOLVENT AND WATER.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 71 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF AN AMINOPYRIDINE COMPOUND WHICH COMPRISES REACTING A PYRIDINE COMPOUND, RINGSUBSTITUTED WITH AT LEAST HONE DISPLACEABLE SUBSTITUENT SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF CHLORO, BROMO, FLUORO, IODO, N+2, -OSO2R, AND -SR+2, WHEREIN EACH R INDEPENDENTLY REPRESENTS HYDROGEN, PHENYL OR A LOWERALKYL RADICAL OF FROM ONE TO ABOUT 4 CARBON ATOMS, INCLUSIVE, WITH AN ALKALI METAL CYANATE IN THE PRESENCE OF A HIGH DIELECTRIC-APROTIC SOLVENT AND WATER.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the high dielectric-aprotic solvent is selected from the group consisting of acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethyl formamide, diglyme, monoglyme acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran and N-methylpyrrolidone.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the alkali metal cyanate is selected from the group consisting of sodium, potassium, lithium and cesium.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 36 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the high dielectric-aprotic solvent is selected from the group consisting of acetonitrile and N-methylpyrrolidone, and wherein the alkali metal cyanate is selected from the group consisting of sodium and potassium.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out at a temperature of from about 20* to about 200*C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out at the boiling temperature of the reaction mixture under reflux conditions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the ring-substituted pyridine compound is pentachloropyridine.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 19 words
The process of claim 1 wherein pentachloropyridine is reacted with sodium cyanate in the presence of N-methylpyrrolidone and water.
