Procedure

To a stirred mixture of methyl 4-chloro-2-pyridinecarboxylate hydrochloride (1.0 g, 4.81 mmol) dissolved in conc. aqueous ammonia (32 mL) is added ammonium chloride (96.2 mg, 1.8 mmol, 0.37 equiv.), and the heterogeneous reaction mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. The reaction mixture is poured into EtOAc (500 mL) and water (300 mL). The organic layer is washed with water (2×300 mL) and a saturated NaCl solution (1×300 mL), dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo to give 4-chloro-2-pyridinecarboxamide as a beige solid (604.3 mg, 80.3%): TLC (50% EtOAc/hexane) Rf 0.20; 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) □ 8.61 (d, J=5.4 Hz, 1H), 8.20 (broad s, 1H), 8.02 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.81 (broad s, 1H), 7.76 to 7.73 (m, 1H).
