Procedure

To a solution of cyclopropylmethanol (446 mg, 6.18 mmol) in THF (10 mL) was added NaH (247 mg, 6.18 mmol, 60% in mineral oil) in one portion at 0° C. The reaction mixture was warmed up to 20° C. over a period of 30 mins and stirred at 20° C. for 10 mins. Then 5-bromo-4-chloro-2-methoxypyridine (550 mg, 2.47 mmol) was added in one portion and the mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 4 hours. The mixture was diluted with saturated ammonium aqueous solution (50 mL) and extracted by EtOAc (2×30 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give the crude product which was purified by silica gel column chromatography (PE:EA=20:1 to 10:1) to afford the title compound (450 mg, 70.6%) as colorless oil. 1H NMR: (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ: 8.11 (s, 1H), 6.18 (s, 1H), 3.90 (s, 3H), 3.89-3.88 (m, 2H), 1.39-1.27 (m, 1H), 0.70-0.67 (m, 2H), 0.46-0.43 (m, 2H). LCMS (M+H)+=258.0 (M+1)+; 260.0
