Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 5-hydroxy-2-methylpyridine (8.80 g, 80.6 mmol) in 125 mL of pyridine was added a solution of bromine (14.18 g, 88.7 mmol) in 50 mL pyridine dropwise. The temperature of the reaction mixture rose to 40° C. upon completion of addition. After 1 hour the pyridine was removed under vacuum and the resulting solid was suspended into water (200 mL) and stirred overnight. The solid was collected and dried to give the desire product as a brownish solid (8.05 g, 53.1% yield). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): δ 2.21 (s, 3 H), 6.73 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1 H), 6.94 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1 H), 9.36 (brs, 1 H).
