Procedure

To a solution of 0.13 g of (4-methoxy-5-methylpyridin-2-yl)methanol in 2 mL of dichloromethane, 0.14 g of manganese dioxide was added. The mixture was stirred for 6 hours while dividedly further adding 0.36 g of manganese dioxide at room temperature. The insoluble substance was filtered off, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the resultant residue was purified by flash column chromatography using gradient elution of hexane:ethyl acetate=9:1 to 4:1 to obtain 77 mg of 4-methoxy-5-methylpyridine-2-carbaldehyde as a white solid.
