Methyl chloroformate → (5-Chloropyridin-3-yl)methanol

To a solution of 5-chloro-nicotinic acid (2 g, 12.7 mmol) and TEA (1.52 g, 15 mmol) in THF (30 mL) was added slowly methyl chloroformate (1.42 g, 15 mmol) at 0° C. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with saturated ammonia chloride and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The organic layer was concentrated to give the crude product (2.8 g, crude), which was dissolved in THF (40 mL) and cooled to −78° C. Lithium aluminium hydride (570 mg, 15 mmol) was added portion-wise. The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 min. The reaction was quenched with aqueous sodium hydroxide and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated to give the crude product, which was purified by silica gel column chromatography (30% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether) to afford the title compound (1.4 g, 9.72 mmol, 76% yield). MS (ESI) m/z 144.1 [M+H]+.
