A mixture of 3-methyl-5-nitropicolinonitrile (2.9 g, 17.8 mmol) and Pd/C (cat.) in MeOH (60 mL) was hydrogenated overnight with a balloon of hydrogen. Pd/C was removed through a pad of celite and the filtrate was evaporated to dryness to afford 2.2 g of 5-amino-3-methylpicolinonitrile as a greenish solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.83 (s, 1H), 6.79 (s, 1H), 6.32 (s, 2H), 2.29 (s, 3H).
