Procedure

To a solution of 2-(4-bromo-benzyloxy)-6-methyl-pyridine (7.30 g, 26.2 mmol) described in Manufacturing Example 3-1-1 in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (200 mL) was added dropwise n-butyl lithium (2.67 M n-hexane solution, 11.8 mL, 31.4 mmol) on a dry ice-ethanol bath (−78° C.), which was stirred for 30 minutes at −78° C. N,N-dimethylformamide (4.04 mL, 52.4 mmol) was added to this mixture at −78° C., and stirred for 5 minutes. Water and ethyl acetate were added to the reaction mixture, which was stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature, and the organic layer was then separated. This organic layer was washed with water and saturated aqueous sodium chloride, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under a reduced pressure. The residue was purified by NH silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:heptane=1:3) to obtain the title compound (4.19 g, 70%).
