Procedure
10 g of 2-mercaptopyridine and 20 g of 6-bromo-valeronitrile are added successively to a solution of 2.26 g of sodium in 200 ml of methanol. After heating under reflux for 3 hours, the mixture is concentrated in vacuo. The residue is taken up with 200 ml of ether. The solution is washed with water and then dried and concentrated; this gives 15 g of the expected nitrile, which is characterized by an Rf of 0.39 in thin layer chromatography on silica (silica gel 60 F 54: Merck) with isopropyl ether as the eluent.
