Procedure

To a stirred solution of 2-(2-aminopyridin-3yloxy)-5-ethyl-4-fluorophenol (45 mg, 0.18 mmol) in glacial acetic acid (2.5 ml) was added 0.36 ml of tetrafluoroboric acid (48% in water). The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and sodium nitrite (18 mg, 0.27 mmol) was added at 0° C. and stirred at 0° C. for 1.5 hours until reaction was complete on TLC. The reaction mixture was quenched by adding ice and sodium bicarbonate solution and stirred for 10 minutes before extracting the aqueous solution with ethylacetate. The combined ethyl acetate fraction was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, water, followed by brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to get the crude compound. The crude material was column purified over silica gel using Petroleum ether/ethyl acetate 9:1 as eluant and then further purified by preparative HPLC using 0.1% TFA in water and acetonitrile as solvent system to get 8 mg (17.6%) of 5-Ethyl-4-fluoro-2-(2-fluoropyridin-3yloxy)phenol as a white solid.
