Reaction Steps

0.915 g of 2-benzyl-3-hydroxy-1-(2-acetoxy-ethyl)-1H-pyridin-4-one (Example 42) are stirred at room temperature in a mixture of 2 ml of 2N NaOH and 10 ml of ethanol for 24 hours. Then 2 ml of 2N HCl are added and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for one hour, filtered and washed with cold ethanol. Drying yields 2-benzyl-3-hydroxy-1-(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-1H-pyridin-4-one.
