After 18 hours, water (10 mL) and ethyl acetate (10 mL) are added, phases are separated and the aqueous layer is extracted with ethyl acetate (3×10 mL). The combined organic layers are washed with brine (30 mL) and dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue is purified on SiO2 eluting with a gradient of 0-60% ethyl acetate in heptane to afford 1-(2-bromo-pyridin-4-yl)-cyclopropanecarbonitrile as a solid (ES+ m/z 223.36; 225.39).
