Procedure
In addition, in the reaction between 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde with (6-methylpyridine-2-yl)methanol shown below as reaction 5, the main products obtained are keto-enol compounds: 2-hydroxy-1,2-bis(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-1-ethanone and 2-hydroxy-1-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-2-(2-pyridyl)-1-ethanone. Subsequent treatment with solvent produces 1,2-bis(6-methylpyridine-2-yl)ethane-1,2-dione and 1-(pyridine-2-yl)-2-(6-methylpyridine-2-yl)ethane-1,2-dione and in a much lesser quantity 1,2-bis(6-methylpyridine-2-yl)ethene-1,2-diol (M. J. Percino, V. M. Chapela, O. Urzua, H. Toribio, C. Rodriguez-Barbarin Journal of Chemical Research, (2007), 187).
