Procedure

3-(4-Pyridyl)-1-propanol (2.68 g, 19.3724 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (100 ml), triphenylphosphine (5.6 g. 21.3096 mmol) was added, and then N-chlorosuccinimide (2.6 g, 19.3724 mmol) was gradually added while cooling on ice prior to stirring overnight. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and extracted with 1N hydrochloric acid. Upon neutralization with saturated sodium bicarnobate water, the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (2,375 g, 15.2605 mmol, 78.77%) as a yellowish-brown oil. This was used without further purification for the following reaction.
