Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of (2,3-dimethyl-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-yl)-methanol (0.300 g, 1.57 mmol)) and activated MnO2 (1.36 g, 15.6 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was stirred at room temperature overnight. After that period of time the suspension was filtered through a celite cake. the solvent was removed from the filtrate, and the residue was purified on silica gel column (CH2Cl2) to afford 3-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridine-2-carbaldehyde as a pale yellow liquid (0.180 g, 61%). 1H NMR (CD3Cl) δ 2.73 (s, 3H), 7.87 (s, 1H), 8.90 (s, 1H), 10.23 (s, 1H).
