Reaction Steps

3-Hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-4-trifluoromethylpyridine from step 1 above was converted to the chloride using the procedure given in step 2 of Example 3. The crude 3-chloromethyl-2-methyl-4-trifluoromethylpyridine was purified by pressurized silica gel column chromatography using 95:5 hexane:EtOAc as eluant. 3-Chloromethyl-2-methyl-4-trifluoromethylpyridine was obtained as a white solid (TLC Rf = 0.45 (9:1 hexane:EtOAc)).
