Procedure

Dichloroacetyl chloride, 97% (2.0 ml, 0.03 mol) was added over a period of 30 seconds to a mixture of 5-amino-2-methoxypyridine (3.7 g, 0.03 mol), pyridine (5.0 ml) and methylene chloride (100 ml). The reaction was exothermic and allowed to stand at room temperature for one hour. The reaction was then washed with 5% sodium carbonate solution (2×100 ml), dried over anhydrous magnesium carbonate, filtered, and evaporated in vacuo to give a solid that was triturated with hexane to yield 6.4 g of the title compound, m.p. 104°-107° C. The title product was identified by infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrocopy (MS) analysis.
