反応手順

To a solution of sodium borohydride (601 mg, 15.9 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (25 mL) was added a solution of 3-chloropyridine-4-carbaldehyde (1.5 g, 10.6 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (5 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour at room temperature. Water was added and extracted 3 times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phase was washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. After evaporation of the solvent, (3-chloropyridin-4-yl)methanol was obtained as a white solid (1.4 g, 90% yield) and used for next step without further purification; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 2.41 (t, J=5.9 Hz, 1H), 4.83 (dd, J=0.8 Hz, J=5.9 Hz, 2H), 7.52-7.55 (m, 1H), 8.51 (m, 2H).
