Procedure

2-methoxy-4,6-dimethyl-nicotinonitrile (1.0 g, 6.166 mmol) was disolved in 30 mL of anhydrous methylene chloride and then added with 6 mL of trifluoro acetic acid and N-iodosuccinimide (2.2 g, 9.248 mmol) in this order while stirring at 0° C. under the nitrogen atmosphere and then stirred again at room temperature for about 4 hours. The mixture was added with 60 mL of a saturated solution of sodium carbonate and 60 mL of a saturated solution of Na2S2O3 and then extracted twice with 80 mL of methylene chloride. The resulting organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and filtered. A silica gel column chromatography (5% EtOAc/Hexanes) was performed on the resulting residue and 1.67 g (94%) of 5-iodo-2-methoxy-4,6-dimethyl-nicotinonitrile was obtained in white solid.
