HCID 22939432tert-Butyl 6-cyano-2-pyridylmethylcarbamateYield 77%

Procedure

A mixture of tert-butyl methyl(2-pyridyl)carbamate N-oxide (14.1 g, 63 mmol), trimethylsilyl cyanide (12.5 g, 126 mmol), N,N-dimethylcarbamoyl chloride (13.5 g, 125 mmol) and nitroethane (120 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 48 hrs. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography, eluted with hexane-ethyl acetate (10:1, v/v) and recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to give the titled compound (11.3 g, 77%).
