Yield: 97.6%

Reaction Conditions:

with n-butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran;water

Steps:

10.i (i)
(i) 4-(4-Chlorobutyl)pyridine 4-Methylpyridine (8.4 g, 90 mmol) and THF (40 mL) were mixed in dry glassware, flushed with nitrogen and cooled to -60° C. n-BuLi (1.6 M solution, 61.9 mL, 99 mmol) was added dropwise over 1.5 h. The temperature was not allowed to exceed -50° C. The mixture was then allowed to reach rt, THF (20 mL) was added and the mixture was then stirred at 45° C. for 2 h. Additional THF (20 mL) was added. This mixture was cooled to 0° C. and added dropwise through a cooled dropping funnel to a 65° C. solution of 3-bromo-1-chloropropane (14.9 g, 94.5 mmol) in THF (15 mL). The reaction mixture was slowly allowed to reach 0° C. overnight. Water (90 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 10 min. The organic layer was separated and dried (Na2SO4) to give the sub-title compound in 97.6% yield.
