The mixture was cooled to RT, treated with EtOAc and the solids removed via filtration. The filtrate was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated to dryness and purified via silica gel chromatography (EtOAc/DCM) to afford N-(4-((2-methyl-6-nitropyridin-3-yl)oxy)pyridin-2-yl)propionamide (420 mg, 74%). MS (ESI) m/z: 303.1 (M+H+).
