After 15 minutes the reaction was quenched by addition of water and the resulting slurry was extracted with Et2O. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (petroleum ether/EtOAc 95:5) to give 491 mg of 3-(5-dimethoxymethyl-pyridin-2-yl)-acrylic acid tert-butyl ester.
