Procedure
A mixture of (2-methylpyridin-3-yl)methanol (1.0 g, 8.12 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) and manganese oxide (7.06 g, 81.2 mmol) was stirred at room temperature for sixty hours and then heated at 45° C. for 4 h. The reaction was filtered through celite and a plug of silica gel (5×7 cm) using ethyl acetate as eluent. The filtrate was then concentrated to give 2-methyl nicotinaldehyde as an oil (680 mg). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 10.32 (s, 1H), 8.67 (dd, 1H), 8.09 (dd, 1H), 7.31 (dd, 1H), 2.88 (s, 3H).
