Procedure

To (5-Chloro-2-nitro-phenyl)-(6-chloro-pyridin-3-yl)-methanol was added an excess (ca. 2 eq.) of PDC in DCM. The suspension was shaken at room temperature overnight. The reaction was monitored by LC-MS, another 1-2 eq. of PDC was added and the reaction was shaken for another 6 hours. The crude product was filtered through Celite and purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, DCM). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ (ppm): 7.50 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.79 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.68 & 7.70 (dd, J=8.8 Hz, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 8.09-8.11 (m, 1 H), 8.24 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1 H), 8.57 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1 H. MS: (M+H)/z=296.9
