Procedure

To a solution of 4-picoline-N-oxide (20 g) in CH2Cl2 (360 mL) was added TMSCN (26.5 mL), stirred 5 minutes, added dimethyl carbamyl chloride (16.6 mL) was added slowly dropwise. The mixture was stirred at RT overnight, poured onto 400 mL H2O, and 40 g NaCO3. Separation of layers and evaporation of CH2Cl2 gave 17.25 g of 2-Cyano-4-methylpyridine-N-oxide, recrystallized from hexane, m.p. 95°-98° C.
