Reaction Steps

To an ice cooled solution of 2-bromoisonicotinic acid (73 g, 0.361 mol) in dichloromethane (500 mL) and methanol (35 g, 1.08 mol) was added 1-ethyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]carbodiimide hydrochloride (67 g, 0.434 mol) by portions. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature overnight. Then 120 g silica gel was added and the solvent evaporated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether to afford 58 g (75%) of methyl 2-bromoisonicotinate as a white solid.
