A mixture of 5-bromo-3-ethyl-6-methyl-1H-pyridin-2-one (41.8 g, 0.193 mol) obtained from Step 2 as described above, iodomethane (70 mL, 1.12 mol), silver carbonate (72 g, 0.261 mol) and dichloromethane is mechanically stirred at ambient temperature for 17 hr (The reaction vessel is wrapped in aluminum foil). An additional portion of iodomethane (70 mL, 1.12 mol) is added and stirring continued for an additional 20 hr. The reaction mixture is filtered through a pad of Celite and the filter cake is washed with dichloromethane. The combined filtrate and wash is concentrated to afford the title compound (44.35 g, 99.9% yield) as a yellow oil.
