Procedure
4-[1-Hydroxy-1-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)methyl]pyridine (10) (10.1 g, 41 mmol) was dissolved in 100 mL of methanol and hydrogenated using a 5% rhodium on carbon catalyst. At the conclusion of the reaction, the catalyst was removed by filtration. The filtrate weighed 111.51 g. The reactor and catalyst cake were washed with methanol. The combined washes weighed 170.27 g and contained 7.6% of the title compound (11).
