Reaction Steps

A mixture of 21 g (0.11 mol) of 2-butyl-3-pyridylpropenal, 120 ml of methanol, 10 g of N-methylmorpholine and 6 g of a hydrogenation catalyst (10% of Pd and 5% of Pr2O3 on Al2O3) is hydrogenated at 75° C. and 75 bar hydrogen pressure in a 0.3 1 stirred autoclave until the pressure remains constant. The solution is filtered under suction over silica gel, the filtrate is evaporated down under reduced pressure and the residue is purified by distillation.
