To a solution of (6-fluoro-pyridin-3-yl)-acetonitrile (15 g, 0.11 mol) and methyl acrylate (19 g, 0.22 mol) in dry THF (150 mL) cooled to −70° C. in dry ice-EtOH bath was added t-BuOK-THF solution (1M, 330 mL, 0.33 mol) in portions. The reaction mixture was stirred at −70° C. for 4 h. After completion (LCMS) 1N HCl (aq) was added slowly at −70° C. (the temperature of reaction mixture don't rise above −50° C.) to adjust the pH to 5-6. The THF layer was separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×150 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the crude title compound (32 g), which was used directly for the next step.
