To a mixture of 5-[(3,4-difluorophenyl)methyl]-3-nitro-2-pyridinecarboxamide (2.7 g, 9.21 mmol) and MeOH (100 ml), was added dimethylformamidedimethylacetal (3.29 g, 27.62 mmol). After stirring at room temperature overnight, the solvent was evaporated using no heat, EtOAc was added and the organic layer was washed three times with brine, dried and concentrated in vacuo. The product was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 20-60% EtOAc/hexanes to afford a dark brown oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.71 (1H, s), 8.05 (1H, s), 7.20-7.15 (1H, m), 7.00-6.80 (2H, m), 4.10 (2H, s), 4.01 (3H, s); HRMS calcd for C14H10F2N2O4+H+: 309.0687. Found 309.0681.
