Then the mixture was stirred at 20-30° C. for 2 hours. Thin layer chromatography (petroleum ether: EtOAc=3:1) showed all of starting material was consumed. The mixture was concentrated and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluted with petroleum ether: EtOAc=20:1˜3:1 to yield [4-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl]acetonitrile (Int-14) (50 g, 60% from NMR, 39% of yield) as yellow syrup.
