Procedure

To a solution of 4-(3-nitropyridin-4-yl)cyclohex-3-enone (1.0 eq) in methanol (0.2 M) was added sodium borohydride (1.8 equiv.) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2 hr. Methanol was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved with ethyl acetate (200 mL), and washed with sat. NaCl (30 mL). The organic was dried with MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to give 4-(3-nitropyridin-4-yl)cyclohex-3-enol (85%). The crude product was used in the next step without further purification. LC/MS (m/z): MH+=221.0, Rt=0.55
