Procedure
2-Picolyl chloride (7.4 g, 58 mmol) (from the hydrochloride) and triphenyl phosphine (16.7 g, 64 mmol) in toluene (100 ml) were heated at reflux for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled in an ice-bath, the precipitated product filtered off and washed with toluene to yield the dried product.
