Procedure
5-Bromo-2-chloro-3-nitropyridine (J. Heterocyclic Chem. 2003, 40, 261) (128 mg, 0.54 mmol) was taken into THF (0.25 mL) followed by addition of 40 W % aqueous dimethylamine (0.25 mL) and the resulting solution was stirred for 1 h at room temperature. The mixture was then partitioned with ethyl ether and 1 M aqueous hydrochloric acid. The organic solution was then washed with additional 1 M aqueous hydrochloric acid (3×) then dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give 5-bromo-N,N-dimethyl-3-nitropyridin-2-amine. MS (EI) for C7H8N3O2Br: 246, 248 (MH+, Br pattern).
