Procedure

To a solution of 3-methylsulfonyl benzyl alcohol (3.5 g, 28.6 mmol) in dichloromethane (50 mL) was added pyridinium chloro chromate (PCC) (9.1 g, 42.2 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. After workup and column chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane:ethyl acetate, 1:1, 3-methylsulfonylbenzaldehyde was obtained as white solid.
