Procedure
A solution of 2-chloro-4-cyanopyridine (0.40 g, 2.9 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1 ml) was added to the mixture and the mixture was refluxed for 6 hrs. The reaction mixture was combined with ethyl acetate and water and stirred. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated. The residue was subjected to a silica gel (30 g) column chromatography, eluted with hexane-ethyl acetate (4:1, v/v) to give the titled compound (0.37 g, 62%).
