4-methyl-5-nitropicolinonitrile (7.0 g, 43 mmol) was suspended in aq. NH4Cl (200 mL) and cooled to 0° C. Zinc was added portionwise for 30 min and stirred for 1 hr. The reaction was added with ethyl acetate (200 mL) and stirred for 2 hrs. The reaction was filtered and the organic layer was taken up, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated over vacuum. The solid was triturated with 50% ethyl acetate in hexane to give 5-amino-4-methylpicolinonitrile in 67% (4.56 g). 1HNMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 7.98 (s, 1H), 7.21 (s, 1H), 5.42˜5.48 (b, 2H), 2.54 (s, 3H). Exact mass calculated for C7H7N3 133.15. found 134.21 (MH+).
