After allowing the reaction to warm to ambient temperature and stirring for 2 hours, the solvents were removed and the crude product purified by passing through a plug of silica gel with chloroform. The product was then recrystallized from hexanes to give 5.8 g (100%) of 5-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-2-chloro-isonicotinic acid, methyl ester: mp=90-96° C. (decomposed); mass spectrum (m/e): M+H 287.1.
