The progression was monitored by TLC (50% hexane:EtOAc) and HPLC. More ethylene glycol (180 μl) and TsOH (3 mg) were added and after 46 hr full conversion was observed by HPLC. 10% Na2CO3 and EtOAc were added. Extraction, drying (MgSO4), and filtration afforded 3-chloro-5-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-2-methylpyridine (274.3 mg, 86%) pure enough to be used in the next step.
