To a mixture of AlCl3 (2.173 g, 16.3 mmol) in benzene (20 mL) was added a solution of 2-(2-methyl-pyridin-3-yl)-propan-2-ol (0.455 g, 3.00 mmol) in benzene (10 mL) and the resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was poured onto ice (˜200 mL), diluted with EtOAc (200 mL), and neutralized with 10 N NaOH (4 mL). The phases were separated and the organic phase was washed with brine (3×25 mL), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated. Purification of the crude material by column chromatography on silica gel (20:1 CH2Cl2-MeOH) provided 0.479 g (75%) of 2-methyl-3-(1-methyl-1-phenyl-ethyl)-pyridine as a colorless oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 1.68 (s, 6H), 2.01 (s, 3H), 7.11-7.20 (m, 4H), 7.24-7.30 (m, 2H), 7.86 (dd, 1H, J=8.1, 1.5 Hz), 8.39 (dd, 1H, J=4.8, 1.5 Hz).
