Procedure
0.60 g of (6-[1,3]dioxolan-2-yl-pyridin-2-yl)dimethylamine (3.09 mmol) is mixed in 10 ml of an aqueous solution of formic acid at 80% and then the solution is heated at 60° C. for 20 hours. The solvents are removed by azeotropic entrainment with toluene, the residue is taken up in water, the mixture is cooled to 0° C. and then the medium is basified by addition of potassium carbonate. The mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate, the organic phase is washed with water and then with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the solvent is evaporated under vacuum. The title product is obtained in the form of a yellow oil (0.43 g) which is used in the next stage without further purification.
