2,5-Dibromo-4-methylpyridine (5.0 g, 19.9 mmol), copper cyanide (1.43 g, 15.9 mmol), sodium cyanide (0.801 g, 16.3 mmol) and dimethylformamide (30 mL) were combined in a sealed reaction vessel and heated at 158° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was purified by silica gel column chromatography (0-80% ethyl acetate in hexanes). The resulting material was subjected to a second silica gel column (0-20% methanol in dichloromethane). Clean fractions were combined and concentrated to afford the title compound as a white solid (2.30 g, 11.6 mmol, 58% yield). MS (ESI) m/z 198.0 [M+1]+.
