Versuchsvorschrift

A solution of 2-chloro-6-cyanopyridine (50 g) in THF (400 ml) is cooled to −5° C. and a solution of methylmagnesium iodide in diethyl ether (3 M, 200 ml) is added. After 1 h at 0° C. the ether is destilled off and the THF-mixture is heated to 60° C. for 1 h. The THF is evaporated and the residue is treated with ice water and acidified with 2 M hydrochloric acid. The water phase is extracted with dichloromethane and after drying and evaporation of the organic phase, the residue is purified by silica-gel flash chromatography. The title compound is obtained as an oil (11.2 g).
