Procedure

To a solution of 5-methyl-2-nitrobenzoic acid (1 g, 5.52 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 ml) was added oxalyl chloride (0.964 ml, 11.04 mmol) and a few drops of dimethylformamide. The mixture was stirred at r.t. for 2 hrs. After the evaporation of the solvent, the residue was dissolved in dichloromethane (5 ml). 2-amino-5-chloropyridine (852 mg, 6.62 mmol) and pyridine (1.34 ml, 16.56 mmol) were added to the solution. The mixture was stirred at r.t. overnight. After the evaporation of the solvent, the crude residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography using solvent system 25% ethyl acetate in hexane as eluent to give N-(5-chloro(2-pyridyl))(5-methyl-2-nitrophenyl)carboxamide as a solid (1.48 g, 92%). MS found for C13H10ClN3O3 M+=291, (M+2)+=293.
