Procedure
A suspension of 6-(isobutylsulfonyl)picolinonitrile (126 mg, 562 μmol) and powdered sodium hydroxide (89.9 mg, 2.25 mmol) in water (15 mL) was heated to 90° C. for 24 h, poured into ice water/0.1 N aqueous HCl solution (1:1) and extracted 3 times with EtOAc. The organic layers were washed with ice water/brine (1:1), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound (116 mg, 85%) as white solid which was sufficiently pure to be used in the next reaction step. MS (EI): m/e=241.9 [M−H]−.
