Procedure

2-Chloro-4-amino-pyridine was brominated according to the method described in Synthesis 2001, 14, 2175-2179: a solution of 4-chloro-4-amino-pyridine (12.3 g) in acetonitrile (500 ml) was treated with N-bromosuccinimide (17.8 g) and the resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. The solution was then concentrated in vacuo and the residue subjected to silica gel chromatography (cyclohexane:ethyl acetate 8:2) to afford 3-bromo-2-chloro-4-aminopyridine (12.2 g, m.p. 146° C. (hexane/ether)) and 5-bromo-2-chloro-4-aminopyridine (2.9 g, m. p. 117-119° C.).
