Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 2,5-dichloro-4-pyridinemethanol (CAN 866039-42-1, 1.10 g, 6.18 mmol) in DCM (25 mL) was added at 0° C. with stirring tetrabromomethane (2.05 g, 6.18 mmol) and a solution of triphenylphosphine (1.62 g, 6.18 mmol) in DCM (5 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica, heptane/ethyl acetate gradient) to give the title compound (619 mg, 42%) as yellow oil. LC-MS (UV peak area, m/z) 98%, 241.0 (MH+).
