A solution of 2-cyano-5-fluoropyridine (0.65 g, 5.3 mmol) in sodium methoxide (1.83 mL of 25% wt. solution in methanol, 7.95 mmol) was stirred at 0° C. for 1.5 hours and 2 hours at ambient temperature. The reaction was then diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine. Removal of the solvent in vacuo afforded 304 mg (43%) of 2-cyano-5-methoxypyridine.
