Product 1

HCID 963516-MethylnicotinamideYield 72%

Procedure

A mixture of methyl 6-methylnicotinate (13.9 g) and 28% aqueous ammonia (140 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 4 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was recrystallized from ethanol to give the title compound as a white solid (yield 8.98 g, 72%).

Workup
