To a cooled (5° C.), stirred slurry of methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (75.7 g) in tetrahydrofuran (530 mL) was added potassium t-butoxide (23.8 g) portionwise over a 5-min period to produce a yellow slurry. After 30 min, 2-chloro-5-formylpyridine (25.0 g) was added in one portion to produce a purple colored slurry. After an additional 30 min, the reaction mixture was treated with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (200 mL) and a majority of the tetrahydrofuran was removed in vacuo. The resulting mixture was washed with ethyl acetate, the combined organic layers washed with saturated aqueous brine, stirred over activated charcoal for 20 min, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting semi-solid was stirred for 30 min with a solution of 2:1 diethyl ether/petroleum ether (375 mL), filtered and the solids washed with an additional portion of 2:1 diethyl ether/petroleum ether (300 mL). The combined filtrates were concentrated in vacuo, pre-loaded on 60 g of silica gel and chromatographed over 700 g of silica gel eluting with a gradient of ethyl acetate (0-8%)/hexanes to afford 15.2 g of the title compound (I-2b) as a colorless oil.
