Reactions of 2-chloro-1-cyano-2-trifluoromethylethylenes with 2-aminopyridi
nes were studied. According to the data of NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffr
action analysis, the first stage of the reaction involves alkenylation of t
he exocyclic nitrogen atom of 2-aminopyridines followed by formation of pyr
ido[1,2-a]pyrimidines.
