Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-(4-pyridyl)propane-1,2-diol (2.0 g) in acetic acid (30 cm3) was hydrogenated over platinum oxide (0.10 g) at 60° and 60 p.s.i. pressure for 16 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration through "Avicel" and volatile material was removed in vacuo to afford 2-(4-piperidyl)propan-1,2-diol (2.1 g). (Crude acetate salt, oil).
