Procedure
Whilst maintaining a reaction temperature of −78° C., 781 ml (1.25 mol) of a 1.6-molar solution of n-butyllithium in n-hexane were added dropwise to a solution of 89.1 g (0.5 mol) of N-(2-pyridinyl)-2,2-dimethylpropanamide in 300 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran. The mixture was allowed to heat slowly up to 0° C. and stirred for 3 hours at this temperature. Then the mixture was again cooled to −78° C. and whilst maintaining this temperature the solution of 109.6 g (1.5 mol) of dimethyformamide in 150 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise thereto. The mixture was allowed to come up to 0° C. and then stirred into 1 l of ice water. It was initially acidified with 12% aqueous hydrochloric acid, then made alkaline by the addition of solid potassium carbonate and extracted thoroughly with diethylether. The combined ether extracts were dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated down. The crystalline residue, after recrystallisation from diisopropylether, had an m.p. of 83° C. Yield: 94.0 g (91.2% of theory).
