Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-methyl-6-(2-methyl-propenyl)-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (175 mg, 0.80 mmol) in THF (5 mL) and ethanol (5 mL), Pd/C (50 mg, 10% Pd) is added. The mixture is stirred at 50° C. for 15 h under 1 bar of H2. The catalyst is filtered off over celite and the solvent of the filtrate is evaporated to give 6-isobutyl-4-methyl-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (174 mg) as a colourless oil; LC-MS: tR=0.84 min, [M+1]+=222.48.
