Procedure

To a suspension of 4-chloro-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (2.0 g, 12.8 mmol) in dichloroethane (43 mL) was added thionyl chloride (2.8 mL, 38.5 mmol) and DMF (2-3 drops). The suspension was warmed to 85° C. After 1 h, the resulting clear, yellow solution was cooled to rt and concentrated. The residue was dissolved in DCE and concentrated. This process was repeated two additional times to give a yellow liquid which crystallized upon standing to give a yellow solid.
