Procedure

A mixture of 3-bromo-5-chloropyridin-2-amine (10 g, 49 mmol) and chloroacetaldehyde (50% in H2O, 12 mL, 98 mmol) in ethanol (100 mL) was heated at 50° C. overnight. It was then cooled to room temperature and concentrated. Acetone (30 mL) was added to the residue and the resulting mixture was stirred rapidly for 2 h. The resulting solid was collected through filtration and dried to afford 101a as a yellow solid (10.0 g, 89%). MS: [M+H]+ 231. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO) δ 9.20 (s, 1H), 8.33 (s, 1H), 8.29 (s, 1H), 8.09 (s, 1H)
