After decantation of aqueous layer, the residue was diluted with saturated ammonium chloride solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extracts were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and then concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography (silica, hexane:ethyl acetate=7:3) of the residue gave 5-bromo-2-(4-cyanotetrahydropyran-4-yl)pyridine (104 mg).
