After stirring at room temperature for 4 hours, an aliquot is taken and injected on LC-MS to check the reaction progress. Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture is quenched with 100 mL of water and extracted with 2×150 mL of ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers are concentrated and purified by chromatography (hexanes 95%, EtOAc 5% step gradient) to give 4-bromo-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid methoxy-methyl-amide (1) as a thick yellow oil (10.4 g, yield 86%) MS ES+ 247.02.
