Procedure

To 5-bromo-2-(methoxycarbonyl)pyridine 1-oxide (22.0 g) was added phosphoryl chloride (40.0 mL), and the mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 10 min. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and poured into ice water. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the extract was washed with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (16.0 g) as a white amorphous solid.
