Procedure

To a −78° C. solution of 4-picoline (1.1 g, 11.8 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was added a solution of LDA 2M in THF/heptane/ethylbenzene (Aldrich) (5.9 mL, 11.8 mmol) the resulting reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 3 h then −40° C. for 1 h. Then cyclopropyl bromide (1.43 g, 11.8 mmol) was added at −78° C., let it warm up to room temperature and stirred at room temperature for 1 h. To the reaction mixture was added saturated aqueous NH4Cl (10 mL) the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (10×2 mL) and the combined organic extracts dried over Na2SO4. The solvent was removed and the product 4-cyclopropylmethylpyridine (0.5 g, 31%) was obtained and used without further purification.
