Procedure
160 g (0.93 mol) of 2-bromo-4-methyl-pyridine is added in drops to 152 g (0.96 mol) of potassium permanganate in 4 l of water. Then, it is stirred under reflux for one hour before 152 g (0.96 mol) of potassium permanganate is added once more. After two additional hours of stirring under reflux, it is suctioned off in a hot state over Celite and washed with water. The aqueous phase is shaken out three times with dichloromethane. The aqueous phase is concentrated by evaporation to one-half its original volume, and the pH is set at 2 with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The precipitated solid is suctioned off and dried at 70° C. in a vacuum. 56.5 g of white solid product accumulates.
