Reaction Steps

Palladium (0.20 g, 0.0188 mmol, 10% wt. on activated carbon) was added to a stirred solution of an approximately 7:3 mixture of (E)-2-fluoro-3-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydrooxepin-4-yl)pyridine:(E)-2-fluoro-3-(2,5,6,7-tetrahydrooxepin-4-yl)pyridine (0.75 g, 3.88 mmol) in THF (15 mL). The reaction mixture was placed under a hydrogen atmosphere (balloon) and stirred at room temperature for 4.5 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give 2-fluoro-3-(oxepan-4-yl)pyridine. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 196.1 (M+1).
