Procedure

To a solution of β,β-dimethyl-1,3-dioxo-2-isoindolinepropionic acid (5 g, 20.2 mmol) and N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (4.6 g, 22.24 mmol) in 50 ml of dry methylene chloride is added 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine (2.41 g, 2.3 ml, 22.24 mmol) at ambient temperature. The mixture is stirred for 24 hours. The precipitate of dicyclohexyl urea is filtered off and discarded. The filtrate is evaporated and the residue is purified via flash chromatography on silica gel using a methylene chloride/methylene chloride-ethanolic ammonia gradient (100 to 96:4) to give 3.97 g of N-[(2-pyridinyl)methyl]-1,3-dihydro-β,β-dimethyl-1,3-dioxo-2H-isoindole-2-propanamide (58%).
