6-Hydroxynicotinic acid (4) reacts with thionyl chloride and methanol to give methyl-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate (5), which is coupled with phenylboronic acid in the presence of copper(II) acetate monohydrate, pyridine and molecular sieves in dichloromethane to give methyl-6-oxo-1-phenyl-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate (6). Compound 6 is hydrolyzed with lithium hydroxide monohydrate in tetrahydrofuran water, to give 6-oxo-1-phenyl-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid 7. Acid 7 reacts with isobutyl chloroformate in the presence of N-methylmorpholine in tetrahydrofuran to give a mixed anhydride which is reduced with sodium borodeuteride in tetrahydrofuran to give d2-5-(hydroxymethyl)-1-phenylpyridine-2(1H)-one (8). Compound 8 is converted to d2-5-bromomethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyridin-2-one (9) by reacting with phosphorus tribromide in dichloromethane. Bromide 9 is reduced with lithium aluminum deuteride to give d3-5-(methyl)-1-phenylpyridine-2(1H)-one (10) of Formula (I).
