Procedure

A 20 ml microwave reaction vessel is charged with 2,5-Dibromo-pyridine (2.00 g, 8.44 mmol) and treated with methylamine (10.45 ml of a 33% solution in ethanol, 84.43 mmol) and warmed to 80° C. for 3 days. After this time the reaction is concentrated and the remaining solid is treated with 1M HCl (50 ml) and DCM. The layers are separated and the aqueous phase is basified using 1N NaOH (to pH-11). The product was extracted into DCM (2×) and the combined organics were dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated to give the desired product I-96bis (1.20 g). 1H-NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): 2.75 ppm (d, 3H), 6.44 ppm (d, 1H), 6.72 ppm (bs, 1H), 7.51 ppm (dd, 1H), 8.05 ppm (s, 1H)
