Reaction Steps

To a suspension of ethyl 3-(pyridin-2-yl)acrylate (2.8 g) in methanol (150 ml) was added 10% palladium on carbon (230 mg) and the mixture was stirred under hydrogen gas atmosphere for 3 hours at room temperature and then filtered to remove an insoluble. Evaporation of solvent from the filtrate yielded ethyl 3-(pyridin-2-yl)propionate (2.5 g, 88%).
