130 °C

5-bromopicolinonitrile (2.0 g, 10.9 mmol), imidazole (818 mg, 12 mmol) potassium carbonate (1.66 g, 12 mmol) and dimethylformamide (40 mL) were combined and heated to 130° C. for 20 hours. The reaction solution was evaporated and the residue was partitioned between dichloromethane (150 mL) and water (100 mL). The phases were separated and the organic phase was washed with water (50 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to give a residue which was purified by flash chromatography eluting with 2-3% methanol in dichloromethane gradient to give 5-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)picolinonitrile (1.23 g, 66%).
