A convenient method for the synthesis of organic carbamates of 2-aminopyridine without using hazardous chloroformate reagent is developed. This alternate approach for the synthesis of organic carbamates and their alkylation to 2-alkylaminopyridines is more practical and economical to be used on large scale. The amazing behavior of 2- aminopyridine helps in forming organic carbamates unlike 3-aminopyridine and 4-aminopyridine.
