Procedure
Lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide 1.0 M in THF (4.25 L, 4.25 mol) was cooled to −70° C. with stirring under nitrogen. 4-methylpyrimidine (250 g, 2.66 mol) was added followed by Methyl 4-chlorobenzoate (453.2 g, 2.66 mol). The cooling bath was removed and the mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stir for 16 h. Water (3 L) and ethyl acetate (3 L) were added followed by acetic acid (200 mL). The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The mixture was then concentrated to 800 mL and hexanes (250 mL) were added. The product was filtered, washed with hexanes, and air dried to provide a yellow solid. (388.1 g, 64%): mp 110.4-110.5° C. 1H NMR (acetone-d6/300 MHz) 14.9 (bs, 1H), 8.8 (s, 1H), 8.4 (m, 1H), 7.7 (d, 2H, J=8.7 Hz), 7.3 (d, 2H, J=8.7 Hz), 6.9 (m, 1H), 5.9 (s, 1H).
