A mixture of 2-acetyl-6-bromopyridine (0.075 mol), 25 ml of pyridine, and iodine (0.075 mol) was allowed to react at 100° C. for 45 minutes and then cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was filtered, the solid product was triturated with CH2Cl2 (200 ml), isolated by filtration, and the residual solvent was removed under vacuum to yield 25.5 g (85%) of the desired salt. Melting point: 176°-178°C.
