Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridine-2-carbaldehyde (4.92 mmol, 35.9 mmol) in DMF (70 mL) were added potassium carbonate (9.93 g, 71.8 mmol) and ethyl bromoacetate (5.97 mL, 53.9 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 30 min. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated and the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=19:1 to 3:2) to give the title compound (2.36 g, yield 32%) as an oil.
