Procedure

A mixture of 2-chloromethyl-3,5-dimethyl-pyridin-4-ol (8.2 g, 47.8 mmol) and POBr3 (60 g, 209 mmol) was stirred at 130° C. for 3 h. The resulting viscous oil was cooled to r.t. and poured onto ice water. The pH was adjusted to 10 with solid KOH. Work-up (CHCl3), drying (MgSO4) and evaporation afforded the title compound as a purple solid (8.7 g, 78% yield) which was used without purification. HPLC Rt: 6.03 min. 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 8.20 (s, 1H), 4.62 (s, 2H), 2.50 (s, 3H), 2.38 (s, 3H).
