Procedure
15.8 g of 2-acetoxymethyl-3-methyl-4-methoxy-pyridine was added dropwise to a 25% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, and the mixture was allowed to react for one hour at room temperature. Subsequently, the reaction liquid was diluted with toluene, and then the toluene phase was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated, to obtain 5.7 g of 2-hydroxymethyl-3-methyl-4-methoxy-pyridine as an oily matter.
