Procedure
5-Bromo-2-fluoro-3-methylpyridine (2.0 g, 0.011 mol) was dissolved with stirring in anhydrous ether (30 mL) and cooled to −70° C. This was treated at <−60° C. with n-butyl lithium (4.8 mL, 2.5M in hexane, 0.012 mol) and the reaction mixture stirred at <−70° C. for one hour. Trimethylacetaldehyde (1.14 g, 0.013 mol) was added and the reaction mixture allowed to warm to −10° C. The reaction mixture was quenched with ammonium chloride solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extract was washed with water and brine, dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated to dryness. Purification of the residue by chromatography over silica (5-25% ethyl acetate:hexane) gave the desired product (1.6 g, 77%) as a clear oil.
