Procedure

6-tert-Butyl-2-ethoxy-nicotinonitrile (1.10 g, 5.3 mmol, prepared according to the literature procedure by Youngdale, G. A. and T. F. Oglia J. Med. Chem. 1985, 28, 1791) and potassium hydroxide (1.80 g, 32.3 mmol) were combined in ethanol/water (30 ml/7 ml) and heated at 90° C. overnight. The reaction was concentrated, acidified with 2N hydrochloric acid solution (20 ml) and extracted with chloroform. The combined organic layers were washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated to give 6-tert-butyl-2-ethoxy-nicotinic acid as a white solid (1.00 g, 95%) LR-MS: 222 [(M−H)+]
