Abstract

Disclosed are preferred processes for preparing a 2-halo-5-halomethylpyridine compound. The preferred processes involve cyclocondensing a 2-halo-2-halomethyl aldehyde or ketone of the formula (II) ##STR1## to form a 2-halo-2-halomethylpyridine compound of the formula (III) ##STR2## wherein X is Cl or Br, Y is a cyano group or an aminocarbonyl group, and R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are, independently, H or an organic radical which does not interfere with the cyclocondensation.
