Upon complete addition, the cold bath was removed and the resultant solution was stirred at room temperature for 15 hours. The solution was concentrated. Methanol was added to quench the reaction resulting in a yellow solid precipitating. The precipitate was collected by filteration and washed with a small amount of cold methanol. 2-(6-Chloro-2-pyridinyl)-1-(3-methyl-2-furyl)ethanone (52.2 g, 94%) was obtained as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 7.61 (t, 1H), 7.43 (s, 1H), 7.23 (m, 2H), 6.40 (s, 1H), 4.36 (s, 2H), 2.37 (s, 3H). MS m/z 236 (M+1).
