Under nitrogen atmosphere a suspension of a 97% pure 3,4-pyridine dicarboxylic acid (152 g, 0.88 mol) in acetic anhydride (450 mL) was heated to reflux and a complete solution was obtained. Once refluxing temperature was reached, solvent was removed by distillation at atmospheric pressure (about 400 mL were collected) over a period of about 1 hour. Vapors temperature was observed to increase from about 132° C. to 140° C. and distillation was stopped when internal temperature reached 150°-155° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to 70° C. and tert-BuOMe (450 mL) was added dropwise under stirring. A dark grey solid precipitated at about 40° C. while temperature was spontaneously let reach 20°-25° C. The suspension was further cooled to 0°-5° C. and stirred for two hours. Under nitrogen blanket the dark grey precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with tert-BuOMe (100 mL) and dried under vacuum (20 torr; 30° C.; 2 h) to yield 3,4-pyridine dicarboxylic acid anhydride (100 g; yield 76%) which was directly used in the next step.
