HCID 11063114Ethyl 6-chloropicolinate

Procedure

14.1 g (0.0895 mole) of 2-chloro-6-hydroxycarbonylpyridine in 133 ml of a solution of HCl in ethanol is heated for 8 hours under reflux. The solvent is evaporated off, ethyl acetate added and the mixture washed with a solution of bicarbonate. The solvent is further evaporated and the reaction product purified by flash chromatography (cyclohexane/ethyl acetate=7/3). The required product is obtained.
