Conditions

Temperature: 110 °C

Procedure

To a solution of 6-bromo-2-methylpyridin-3-amine (compound 1, 500 mg, 2.69 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) was added Zn(CN)2 (943 mg, 8.06 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (288 mg, 0.3 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction was stirred at 110° C. in microwave reactor for 1 h. After it was cooled to room temperature, the mixture was filtered and purified by reverse phase chromatography (X bridge Prep C18OBD, 40-60% MeOH in water with 10 mmol NH4HCO3 modifier) to afford the compound as an oil.
