Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of (1-oxy-pyridin-3-yl)-acetonitrile (10 g, 75 mmol) in anhydrous CH2Cl2 under a nitrogen atmosphere was added trimethylsilylcyanide (10.95 mL, 82 mmol) and dimethylcarbamoylchloride (7.55 mL, 82 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 72 hours and then concentrated. EtOAc (100 mL) was added to the residue and the organic phase was washed with 1 M NaOH (150 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The resulting solid was purified by column chromatography (50% EtOAc/hexanes) affording 7.08 g (66%) of a yellow solid: mp 48-51° C.; MS (+) APCI m/z 144 [M+H]+.
