Procedure
(5-Iodo-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-pyridin-3-yl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester 3 (551 g, 1.49 mol, 1.0 Eq.) was charged to a flask followed by CHCl3 (7.4 L). In the dark, silver carbonate (528.9 g, 1.92 mol, 1.3 Eq.) and methyl iodide (940 mL, 15.1 mol, 10.1 Eq.) were charged to the flask and the reaction allowed to stir at ambient temperature overnight. LC analysis showed approximately 68% conversion to product, so a further mount of silver carbonate (35 g, 127 mmol, 0.09 Eq.) was added and the reaction allowed to stir at ambient temperature for 66 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite (300 g) and the filter pad washed with CHCl3 (5×500 mL). The combined organic extracts were concentrated in vacuo to give an orange oil (588.5 g) which was split into two batches and purified by column chromatography using silica gel (2×2 Kg) eluting with 1;1 EtOAc/hexane to give the desired product as an orange oil which solidified to a pale pink solid on standing (495.7 g, 1.29 mol, 87%)
