Procedure

A solution of the compound obtained in Step C (5.9 g) in dichloromethane (80 ml) was treated with trifluoroacetic acid (3.7 ml) at ambient temperature for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate (saturated) and washed several times with dichloromethane. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and then concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography on silica gel (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate 1:1) afforded 6-difluoromethyl-pyridin-3-yl-amine (2.1 g): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 3.98 (br s, 2H), 6.56 (t, 1H), 7.03 (dd, 1H), 7.40 (d, 1H), 8.06 (d, 1H).
