Reaction Steps

200 mL of acetic anhydride was heated to 100° C., followed by gradual addition of 2-methyl-4-nitropyridine N-oxide (25.0 g, 162 mmol). After the addition, the mixture was gradually heated, and was kept at 130° C. for 20 minutes. Then, the reaction mixture was cooled to 80° C., followed by dropwise addition of 200 mL of ethanol to stop the reaction.
