Procedure

To a dimethylsulfoxide (10 ml) solution of potassium t-butoxide (262 mg, 2.33 mmol) and 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (349 mg, 2.33 mmol), (4-((2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)methoxy)-3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methyl acetate (500 mg, 1.55 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred in a nitrogen atmosphere at 150° C. for 3 hours and 10 minutes. After cooled to room temperature, the reaction mixture was diluted with toluene and washed with a diluted aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and a saturated saline solution, dried over sodium sulfate, and filtrated. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected twice to silica gel column chromatography (elution solvent: n-heptane/ethyl acetate=1/1) to obtain the title compound (441 mg, 68.8%) as a white foam.
