Procedure

To a solution of 3,6-difluoro-N-((4-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methyl)pyridin-2-amine (1.4 g, 5.78 mmol) in MeOH (14 mL) was added sodium methoxide (25 wt. % in MeOH, 7 mL, 30.8 mmol). The mixture was heated in a steel bomb at 135° C. for 3 days. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was taken up in water (200 mL), and the resulting precipitate was filtered off and rinsed with water. The solid was dissolved in DCM. The organic solution was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered off and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography [SiO2, 80 g, 20 min, EtOAc/heptane=0/100 for 2 min, then EtOAc/heptane=5/95 to 25/75 over 23 min, EtOAc/heptane=25/75] providing 3-fluoro-6-methoxy-N-((4-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methyl)pyridin-2-amine as an off-white solid. Yield: 1.22 g. LCMS (m/z): 255.1 [M+H]+; Retention time=0.89 min.
