Procedure
To a sodium ethoxide solution, prepared by addition of sodium (36 mg, 1.58 mmol) to ethanol (2 mL), was added 2,6-dibromopyridine (250 mg, 1.06 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 2.5 h, then was diluted with EtOAc. The organic phase was washed with water (2×) and brine, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography (0 to 10% EtOAc/hexanes gradient) to afford 163 mg of 156.1 as a colorless oil. LCMS (2 min gradient) RT=1.68 min, 202.1 (M+H)+.
