Procedure

To (5-fluoro-2-methoxy-pyridin-3-yl)-methanol (36, 8 g, 50.9 mmol) in 300 mL of ethyl acetate, manganese(IV) oxide (39.8 g, 458 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite, and the celite bed rinsed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated under vacuum, then passed through a plug of silica, eluting with 50% ethyl acetate in heptane to provide the desired compound as a light yellow solid (37, 4.5 g, 29.0 mmol, 57.0% yield).
