A solution of ethyl 2-(pyridin-4-yl)acetate (1.00 g, 6.06 mmol) in THF (10 ml) was added dropwise to a suspension of sodium hydride (0.24 g, 6.06 mmol, 60%) in THF (10 ml) at −50° C. under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h. Methyl iodide (2.10 ml, 33.6 mmol) in THF (10 ml) was added slowly at −50° C. over a period of 15 min, then the reaction mixture was warmed up to −10° C. and continued to stir for another 4 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with aqueous ammonium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (50 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuo. The crude was washed with diethyl ether (10 ml) to get 550 mg (50.7%) of ethyl 2-(pyridin-4-yl)propanoate as a colorless liquid.
