Procedure
To a solution of 2-chloro-isonicotinic acid ethyl ester (10.0 g, 63.3 mmol) in THF (150 mL), NMP (8.78 g, 88.6 mmol) and Fe(acac)3 (2.46 g, 6.96 mmol) is added under argon. The mixture is cooled to −74° C. before isobutylmagnesium bromide (47 mL of a 2 M solution in THF, 94.9 mmol) is added. The temperature rises to −65° C. The mixture is stirred at −75° C. for 1 h, then warmed to rt and carefully quenched with water. The mixture is extracted with EA, the org. extract is dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product is purified by CC on silica gel eluting with heptane:EA 9:1 to give 2-isobutyl-isonicotinic acid ethyl ester (3.00 g) as an oil, LC-MS: tR=0.74 min, [M+1]+=208.11.
