Procedure

To a stirred mixture of methyl 4-chloro-2-pyridinecarboxylate hydrochloride (1.0 g, 4.81 mmol) dissolved in conc. aqueous ammonia (32 mL) was added ammonium chloride (96.2 mg, 1.8 mmol, 0.37 equiv.), and the heterogeneous reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. The reaction mixture was poured into EtOAc (500 mL) and water (300 mL). The organic layer was washed with water (2×300 mL) and a saturated NaCl solution (1×300 mL), dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo to give 4-chloro-2-pyridinecarboxamide as a beige solid (604.3 mg, 80.3%): TLC (50% EtOAc/hexane) Rf 0.20; 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 8.61 (d, J=5.4 Hz, 1H), 8.20 (broad s, 1H), 8.02 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.81 (broad s, 1H), 7.76 to 7.73 (m, 1H).
