Procedure
A mixture of methyl 5-(trifluoromethoxy)pyridine-2-carboxylate (0.313 g, 1.41 mmol), potassium hydroxide (0.076 g, 1.35 mmol) in a 5:1 MeOH:water mixture (3 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. Additional potassium hydroxide (0.015 g, 0.267 mmol) in water (0.2 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness and azeotroped twice with toluene to give the potassium 5-(trifluoromethoxy)pyridine-2-carboxylate intermediate (404 mg 100%). A fraction of this intermediate (0.173 g, 0.706 mmol) was dissolved in oxalyl chloride (4 mL) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h before being evaporated to dryness and used without further purification in the next step.
