Procedure

A mixture of 5 g of methyl 4-chloropicolinate and 3.44 g of benzylamine is heated at 100° for 16 hours. Cooling and trituration with ether/hexane affords N-benzyl-4-chloro-pyridine-2-carboxamide. This material is heated with 5 g of sodium azide in 50 ml of dimethylformamide at 100° for 10 hours. After dilution with water the product is extracted with ether. Drying and removing the solvent affords 4-azido-N-benzyl-pyridine-2-carboxamide as an oil. This material is stirred under 1 atom of hydrogen in 50 ml of ethanol with 1.0 g of 10% palladium on carbon catalyst for 4 hours. Filtration and removal of solvent affords 4-aminopyridine-2-(N-benzyl)-carboxamide as an oil.
