b.5 4.2 Typical procedure for the synthesis of 1a

General procedure: To a solution of 2-methylpyridine (2.79 g, 30 mmol) in 35 mL THF, nBuLi (12.4 mL, 2.5 M solution in hexane, 30 mmol) was slowly added at 0 °C with stirring. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature for 4 h, after which acetonitrile (1.61 mL, 31 mmol) was added at 0 °C and then stirred for 6 h at room temperature. A sulfuric acid of 60% aqueous solution was then added dropwise until a PH of 1 was reached, and was stirred for 1 d to complete acidic hydrolysis, then neutralized with saturated aqueous KOH solution. The organic layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (50 mL × 3), then dried over MgSO4 and concentrated by rotary evaporator. This compound was purified by reduced pressure distillation, resulting in yellow oil of 1a. 1b-2g were purified by reduced pressure distillation. 3a-3f were purified by recrystallization and chromatography.
