Reaction Steps

To 5-hydroxypyridine-2-carboxylic acid (5.0 g, 36 mmol) suspended in CH2Cl2 (120 mL) was added DMF (1 mL) followed by oxalyl chloride (4.7 g, 37 mmol). After 1 hour, excess MeOH was added. The resulting mixture was stripped of solvent in vacuo yielding a brown solid that was washed with hot EtOAc. Yielded 4.6 g of product.
