Procedure

A suspension of pyridinium chlorochromate (47.5 g, 0.22 mol) and neutral alumina (170 g) in dichloromethane (600 ml) is stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature. 2-[(2,3-dimethylphenyl) amino]benzyl alcohol (25 g, 0.11 mol) is added and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight. The suspension is filtered through a pad of silica gel (1000 g) and the product is eluted with dichloromethane (2500 ml). The combined filtrate and eluant are evaporated and the residue is recrystallized from cold methanol/water to give 2-[(2,3-dimethylphenyl)amino]benzaldehyde (11.95 g, Recrystallization from hexane at 0° C. gives analytical material; mp 45°-47° C.
