Procedure

To a suspension of 5-fluoro-2-(2-fluoro-4-iodo-phenylamino)-6-formylaminomethyl-nicotinic acid methyl ester (2.7 g, 6.2 mmol) in toluene (20 mL) was added phosphorous oxychloride (1.1 mL, 12.2 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at 95° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and then concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed with water followed by a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate, then brine. The organic phase was isolated, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was subjected to flash chromatography (Si-PPC, gradient 0% to 50%, ethyl acetate in hexane) to afford the title compound as a yellow solid (1.0 g, 39%). LCMS (method B): RT=3.97 min, [M+H]+=430.
