Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(5-nitro-pyridin-2-yl)-pyrrolidin-3-ol (120 mg, 0.57 mmol) in 5 mL of DMF was added 10 equivalent of sodium hydride (228 mg, 5.7 mmol, 60% in mineral oil). The mixture was stirred at 23° C. for 15 min followed by the addition of 10 equivalent of iodomethane (355 uL, 5.7 mmol). The reaction was continually stirred for 2 h and then extracted with ethyl acetate and water. The organic phase was dried and solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified on a flash chromatography column with EtOAc/hexanes to afford 2-(3-methoxy-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-5-nitro-pyridine. LRMS calcd for C10H13N3O3 (m/e) 223, obsd 224 (M+H).
