Procedure

To a solution of 6-chloro-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethoxy)-nicotinamide (3, 4.68 g, 18.3 mmol) in acetonitrile (anhydrous, 100 mL) were added pyridine (11.86 mL, 146.8 mmol) and POCl3 (6.72 mL, 73.4 mmol). The reaction was heated at 55° C. for 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, NaOH solution (10% aq.) was slowly added till pH 9. EtOAc (200 mL) was added and layers separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (2×200 mL). The combined organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The purification was accomplished by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 2%-20% EtOAc/hexanes gradient, to afford 4 g (92% yield) of the titled product.
