Procedure

A mixture of 6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)picolinic acid (2.40 g, 10.9 mmol, Step-1), methyl iodide (3.39 mL, 54.3 mmol) and potassium carbonate (4.50 g, 32.6 mmol) in DMA (54 mL) is stirred at rt for 4 hours. The reaction mixture is poured into water (100 mL) and extracted with n-hexane/EtOAc (1:10, 100 mL). The organic layer is washed with water (100 mL), dried over sodium sulfate. After filtration, the filtrate is concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with n-hexane/EtOAc (5:1) to give 1.14 g (45% yield) of the title compound as colorless oil.
