Procedure
6-Chloro-N-(3,4-dimethyl-phenyl)-nicotinamide was prepared from 3,4-dimethyl aniline and 6-chloronicotinoyl chloride following a procedure similar to the one described in the synthesis of 6-chloro-N-(4-iodo-3-methyl-phenyl)-nicotinamide, above. The product was isolated after precipitation out of a small volume of CH2Cl2 with hexanes. HRMS m/z calcd for C14H13N2OCl [M+H]+: 261.0789. Found: 261.0788
