Procedure

A solution of tert-butyl 6-amino-2-chloro-4-methylnicotinate (9.4 g, 38.7 mmol, 1 equiv) and ethyl bromopyruvate (6.5 mL, 46.5 mmol, 1.2 equiv) in EtOH (194 mL) was heated to reflux for 2 h. Upon cooling to ambient temperature, the solution was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated in ether and filtered to provide the product (11.4 g, 70%) as a cream colored solid. LCMS (ESI, M+1): 339.1.
