The suspension was stirred while iron powder (37 mg, 0.67 mmol) was added in portions (exotherm), and the mixture was heated to reflux for 1 hour. Mixture was poured into water (20 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (20 ml). Organics were dried and evaporated then flash chromatographed over silica (4 g Combiflash cartridge, 7:3 heptane/ethyl acetate) to afford 29 mg of 3,4-diamino-6-(4-methoxy-3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyridine-2-carbonitrile as a light brown solid. 1H NMR (DMSO) δ 8.08-8.01 (m, 2H) 7.05-7.00 (m, 2H), 3.94 (s, 3H). MS m/z 309.7 (M+1).
