Procedure
To a 0° C. solution of 2-(benzyloxy)-4-({[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-6-methylpyridine-3-carbonitrile (Cpd I, 1.0 g, 2.8 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL) was added NaBH4 (81 mg, 2.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum to give [2-(benzyloxy)-4-({[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-6-methylpyridin-3-yl]methanol (Cpd J, 147 mg, 14%) as a solid.
