Procedimiento

Commercially available 2,3-lutidine (5.00 g) was dissolved in dichloromethane (50 ml) and the solution was cooled to 0° C. After that, the solution was added with meta-chloroperbenzoic acid (12.1 g) and then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the solution was added with dichloromethane and washed with a 1 mol/l sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and saturated saline solution, followed by drying with anhydrous sodium sulfate. Then, the solvent was distilled off, thereby obtaining crude 2,3-lutidin-N-oxide (3.16 g). A 2.00 g part thereof was dissolved in dichloromethane (40 ml) and then the solution was cooled to 0° C. Subsequently, the solution was added with trifluoroacetic anhydride (4.49 ml), followed by stirring at room temperature for 4 hours and then at 45° C. for 3 hours. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was distilled off and the residue was dissolved in methanol (30 ml), followed by the addition of a sodium methoxide/methanol solution until the pH of the solution would reach pH=10. After the solution had been stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, the solvent was distilled off and extraction was then carried out with dichloromethane. The extract was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was then distilled off, thereby obtaining 3-methyl-2-hydroxymethylpyridine (1.30 g). A 605.3 mg part thereof was dissolved in chloroform (30 ml) and then added with manganese dioxide (chemically processed product) (3.03 g), followed by stirring at 70° C. for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the catalyst was removed through Celite filtration and the solvent was then concentrated. Then, the residue was purified through silica gel column chromatography (chloroform/ethyl acetate), thereby obtaining the subject compound (419.8 mg) as a pale-orange colored liquid.
