Reaction Steps

To a suspension of N-methoxy-N-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-trimethylsilanylethynyl-nicotinamide (148 g, 0.449 mmol) in THF (1 ml) and CH3OH (0.5 ml) was added a solution of 1N-NaOH (0.5 ml) and the mixture was stirred for 50 min at room temperature. The resulting residue was dissolved in H2O and then washed three times with EtOAc, acidified with 1N HCl to pH 1˜2. The solution was extracted three times with methylene chloride and then dried over anhyd. Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give 2-ethynyl-N-methoxy-N-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-nicotinamide (116 mg, 99%).
