Procedure
A mixture of methyl 5-(benzyloxy)-3-methyl-2-(propan-2-yloxy)pyridine-4-carboxylate (131b, 1.1 g, 3.5 mmol) and Pd/C (0.5 g) in MeOH (60 mL) was hydrogenated under an H2 balloon at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through CELITE® and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give methyl 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-(propan-2-yloxy)pyridine-4-carboxylate (131c, 0.7 g, 89%) as yellow oil.
