Reaction Steps

Under N2, methyl 2-chloro-6-methoxyisonicotinate (CAS 42521-10-8) (3.97 g, 19.7 mmol, Eq: 1.00), zinc cyanide (2.77 g, 23.6 mmol, Eq: 1.2) and Tetrakis-triphenylphosphin-palladium (1.14 g, 985 μmol, Eq: 0.05) were mixed in DMF (67.5 ml). The RM was stirred under microwave at 160° C. for 30 minutes. Control with LC-MS: the reaction was finished.
