Procedure

To a cooled (0-5° C.) mixture of 3-bromo-2-hydroxy-5-nitropyridine (47.0 g, 0.214 mol) and quinoline (13.7 g, 0.107 mol) was added POCl3 (26.0 mL, 0.278 mol) dropwise over ˜10 min (the mixture was difficult to stir initially but became less viscous as the reaction progressed and the mixture warmed). After stirring at 120° C. for 3.5 h, the mixture was cooled to 100° C. and water (90 mL) was added. The resulting mixture was stirred vigorously while cooling to 0-5° C. The product was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried in vacuo at 45° C. to give 3-bromo-2-chloro-5-nitropyridine (42.0 g, 82% yield). 1H NMR (CD3OD) δ 9.19 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 8.93 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H).
