After 2 hrs the DME was evaporated and ethyl acetate (200 ml) and water were added and the product was extracted into ethyl acetate (3 times). The extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. Chromatography on silica gel (0-50% ethyl acetate in isohexane, using a SNAP340 cartidge on a Biotage SP4) gave 4-(5-ethoxy-2-fluoro-phenyl)pyridine-2-carbonitrile (D111) (6.12 g) as an off white solid;
