Reaction Steps

1-(4-Pyridyl)-2,3-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-6-benzyloxy-7-methoxynaphthalene (2.3 g) is dissolved in acetic acid (50 ml), and thereto is added 10% palladium-carbon. The mixture is subjected to hydrogenation for 3 hours with shaking by using a moderate-pressure reduction apparatus (Parr). The palladium-carbon is removed by filtration, and the filtrate is concentrated. The precipitated crystal is washed with diethyl ether to give 1-(4-pyridyl)-2,3-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-6-hydroxy-7-methoxynaphthalene (1.8 g).
