Procedure

To a round bottom flask is added 3-bromo-5-fluoropyridine (475 mg, 2.7 mmol) in 4 ml of dry THF at −78° C., followed by the addition of lithium diisopropylamine (1.62 ml, 3.24 mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at −78° C. for 1 hour, followed by the addition of ethyl chloroformate (586 mg, 5.4 mmol). The reaction mixture is warmed up to room temperature and stirred for 1 hour. The reaction mixture is diluted with EtOAc, washed with saturated NH4Cl/water, brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give the crude product. Purification by the flash column chromatography affords 670 mg of 3-bromo-5-fluoro-isonicotinic acid ethyl ester.
