The mixture was then stirred at 100° C. for 2 hrs. The mixture was filtered through the Celite and washed with EtOAc. The filtrate was diluted with EtOAc, washed with brine and concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography using hexane-EtOAc (4:1) as eluant to give the desired product methyl 6-(2-cyanophenyl)-2-(3-fluorophenethylamino)nicotinate as a yellow solid (31 g, 82%). LRMS (M+H+) m/z 376.1.
