Procedure

A mixture of 4-nitro-2,6-dibromopyridine-N-oxide (1.2 g), iron powder (1.2 g) and acetic acid (15 ml) were stirred and heated to 100° C. for 1 hour. Upon cooling the mixture was basified with 3 molar sodium hydroxide and continuously extracted with ether. Removal of the ether under reduced pressure left a white crystalline product of 4-amino-2,6-dibromopyridine (1.0 g, 99%), m.p. 212-214° C.
