Procedure

Methyl 6-methylnicotinate (1.05 g, 10 mmol) was dissolved in ethyl acetate (50 ml), and NBS (3.56 g, 20 mmol) and AIBN (329 mg, 2 mmol) were added thereto. The reaction mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 3 hours, combined with an aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent:ethyl acetate/hexane=¼) to give the title compound (682 mg, 28%) as an orange amorphous compound.
