Procedure

To a suspension of sodium hydride (60% in mineral oil, 7.9 g, 181 mmol, 1.5 eq.) in THF (65 mL) was added within 30 minutes at room temperature a solution of [3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-isoxazol-4-yl]-methanol (25.0 g, 121 mmol) and 6-chloronicotinonitrile (16.7 g, 121 mmol) in THF (120 mL) and the resulting mixture was stirred for one hour. A solution of citric acid (18.5 g, 96.5 mmol) in water (185 mL) was added to the reaction mixture within 30 minutes. From the resulting THF/water mixture THF was distilled off under reduced pressure at a jacket temperature of 60° C. and replaced by ethanol. In total 284 g of ethanol were added. The resulting suspension was stirred for one hour at room temperature. The crystals were filtered off, washed with a mixture of ethanol (60 mL) and water (60 mL) and subsequently dried at 50° C./<25 mbar to afford 36.5 g (91% corrected yield) of the title nitrile as an off-white solid with an assay of 93% (w/w).
