Cl[C:2]1[O:10][C:5]2[CH:6]=[CH:7][CH:8]=[N:9][C:4]=2[CH:3]=1>C(O)(=O)C.[Zn]>[O:10]1[C:5]2[CH:6]=[CH:7][CH:8]=[N:9][C:4]=2[CH:3]=[CH:2]1Chlorofuropyridine (7, 1.27 g, 8.27 mmol) is treated with zinc (3.23 g, 49.6 mmol) in acetic acid (20 ml) at refluxing temperature until the starting material disappears (˜4 hours). The reaction is filtered to remove solid. The filtrate is concentrated and the residue is dissolved in water. After basification with 1N sodium hydroxide, the mixture is extracted with methylene chloride. Evaporation leaves a yellow oil, which is purified with flash column chromatography on silica gel to give furopyridine as a yellow oil (8).
