Procedure
To a solution of 6-methoxy-2-methyl-3-nitropyridine (62.4 g, 0.371 mol) in methanol (1700 mL) was added 10% palladium on carbon (50% wet; 6.24 g), and the mixture was purged with hydrogen and stirred under balloon pressure hydrogen at room temperature for 4.5 hrs. The catalyst was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound as a brown oil (47.0 g, 0.340 mol, 92%).
