A solution of 3 g of 6-hydroxymethylpyridine-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (16.5 mmol) in 70 ml of 1,2-dichloroethane containing 15 g of manganese dioxide (165 mmol) is heated under reflux for 4 hours with removal of the water formed continuously. The solid is removed by filtration on celite and then the dichloromethane is evaporated off. The title product is isolated by chromatography on a silica column (eluent: dichloromethane/ethyl acetate; 70:30). 2.33 g of a yellow oil are recovered.
