Procedure

To 6-methyl-pyridin-3-ol (5.0 g, 45.82 mmol) in pyridine (15 mL) was added bromine (3.66 g, 22.91 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature under N2 for 20 h. The crude reaction mixture was poured on to crushed ice-water (300 mL) and stirred for 3 h. The reaction was extracted with ethyl acetate (5×100 mL), washed with brine, dried with Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to afford 6.3 g (738%) of I-115 as light yellow solid.
