Procedure
To an ice-cold solution of 3-bromoisonicotinaldehyde (2.5 g, 13.44 mmol) in MeOH (Volume: 100 ml) was added sodium borohydride (1.017 g, 26.9 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at that temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was then quenched with satd. NaHCO3, filtered, and evaporated to remove MeOH. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (2×). The combined organics were washed with satd. NaHCO3 and brine, dried, and concentrated to give Intermediate 65A as a white solid. MS (ES): m/z=189.9 [M+H]+.
