Procedure

To a flask fitted with an overhead stirrer, a thermometer and a condenser was added a solution of 12 Kg (90.22 mole) 5-ethyl-2-vinyl-pyridine dissolved in a mixture of 45 lit. tert-butanol and 135 lit. water at 25° C., followed by addition of 19.26 Kg (108.25 mole) N-bromosuccinimide and reaction mixture was stirred for 1.5 hr. 135 lit. aqueous 2N NaOH solution was added to the reaction mixture and stirring was continued for further 45 min. Progress of reaction was monitored by TLC and after completion of reaction, product was extracted with 120 lit. methylene chloride, Layers were separated organic layer was washed with 72 lit. brine solution, dried (magnesium sulfate) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residual mass obtained was added into a stirred mixture of 15.96 Kg (130.8 mole) 4-hydroxy benzaldehyde dissolved in 130 lit. toluene and 5.23 Kg (1307 mole) NaOH dissolved in 120 lit. water. To this was added 2.21 Kg PEG 4000 and stirred for 17 hr. at 78° C. Subsequent work-up gave 20.538 Kg (84%) 4-[2-(5-ethyl-pyridin-2-yl)-2-hydroxy-ethoxy]-benzaldehyde, m.p. 82° C.
