Procedure
To a suspension of 2-ethynyl-N-methoxy-N-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-nicotinamide (145 mg, 0.561 mmol) in 5% Pd/C (30 mg) was added CH3OH (4 ml). The mixture was purged three times with hydrogen gas (50 psi) and shaken for 2 hours at room temperature. The reaction mixture was filtered over a pad of Celite and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was chromatographed to yield the 2-ethyl-N-methoxy-N-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-nicotinamide (112 mg, 76%).
