Procedure

A mixture of 5-methoxymethoxymethyl-2-[2-(4-nitrophenoxy)ethyl]pyridine (14.5 g), 2N hydrochloric acid (50 ml) and methanol (50 ml) was stirred under reflux for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated and the residue was neutralized with saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 5-hydroxymethyl-2-[2-(4-nitrophenoxy)ethyl]pyridine (9.7 g, yield: 88%). This compound was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to obtain colorless prisms, m.p. 144°-145° C.
