Procedure
To a suspension of hexane washed 60% sodium hydride (2.65, 66.0 mmol) in DMF (30 mL) at 0° C. was added 3-methoxyphenyl acetonitrile (8.0 g, 54.3 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min. A solution of 2,5-dibromopyridine (15.45g, 65.2 mmol) in DMF(20 mL) was added and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 20 min and at 50° C. for 30 min. To the reaction mixture was added H20 (20 mL) and Et2O (200 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine (5x50 mL), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. Purification by flash chromatography with hexanes/EtOAc (10:1) afforded 10.6 g of (5-Bromopyridin-2-yl)-(3-methoxy-phenyl)-acetonitrile. 1HNMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 6 8.63 (s,1H), 7.80 (dd, 1H), 7.27 (comp, 2H), 6.98 (d, 1H), 6.87 (s,1H), 6.84 (m, 1H), 5.28 (s, 1H), 5.23 (s, 3H); MS (M+1) 303.0, 305.0.
