Procedure
In a microwave tube NaH (60% in paraffin. 56 mg. 1.4 mmol) was washed with hexane and 3-bromo-2,5-dichloro-pyridine (245 mg. 1.08 mmol) in dry DMF (2 mL) were added. To this suspension BnOH (123 μL. 1.23 mmol) in dry DMF (1 mL) was dropped carefully. The reaction mixture was stirred 15 min until the formation of hydrogen has ceased. The tube was sealed and stirred at 100° C. in a microwave reactor for 30 min. After removal of the solvent in vacuo the residue was partioned between water (10 mL) and DCM (10 mL) and extracted with DCM (3×10 mL). The combined organic fractions were washed with brine dried over Na2SO4 filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting title compound was used for the next reaction without purification. GC-MS (m/z): 297 [M+].
