Procedure
NaH (55% in mineral oil, 0.72 g) was added to a solution of (4-bromo-pyridin-2-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester (1.80 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (20 mL) chilled in an ice bath. The resulting mixture was stirred for 10 min at room temperature and then cooled again in an ice bath. 1,2-Dibromoethane (0.70 mL) was added dropwise and the cooling bath was removed. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Brine was added and the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were washed with brine and dried (MgSO4). The solvent was evaporated and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel (cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 95:5→1:1) to give the title compound as an oil. Yield: 1.28 g (64% of theory); Mass spectrum (ESI+): m/z=270/272 (Br) [M+H]+.
