Procedure

To a solution of 2,3-dichloro-6-methylpyridine (2 g, 12.3 mmol) in carbon tetrachloride (40 mL) was added NBS (2.64 g, 14.8 mmol) followed by AIBN (40 mg, 0.24 mmol). The reaction heated to 80° C. under nitrogen for 3.5 hours. The reaction was cooled and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was sonicated in heptanes and filtered. The filtrate was eluted through a pad of silica using 10% TBME in heptanes to afford the title compound (2.90 g). The crude material was taken on directly to the next step.
