Procedure

2,6-Dichloronicotinaldehyde (1 g, 5.68 mmol) was diluted with sodium methoxide (11.4 mL, 5.68 mmol) (solution in methanol) and heated to 55° C. After stirring for 3 hours, the reaction was loaded directly onto a silica gel column and eluted with 5% ethyl acetate/hexanes to 50% ethyl acetate/hexanes to yield 6-chloro-2-methoxynicotinaldehyde (0.695 g, 4.05 mmol, 71.3% yield).

Workup
