Procedure
A mixture of (6-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)(2-fluoropyridin-3-yl)methanone (2.27 g, 7.452 mmol) and a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide (20 mL, 513.6 mmol) was heated to 70° C. for 18 hours. The mixture was cooled down to room temperature and the resulting solid was filtered, washed with water and dried under vacuum to give the title compound as a pale yellow solid (2.12 g, 94% yield).
