The reaction mixture was poured into water (100 ml), and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The resulting organic layer was washed with water and brine, and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated, and the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane system), to give 4-(4-methoxyphenylethynyl)-3-cyanopyridine (2.13 g, 95%) as a pale yellow oil.
