Procedure
To a solution of ethyl 6-(methoxy(methyl)amino)-4-(methylamino)nicotinate (6 g, 25 mmol) in THF (60 mL) at 0° C. was added LiAlH4 (1.9 g, 50.2 mmol) in portions under N2 atmosphere. After 20 min, the reaction was quenched by addition of water followed by aqueous 2N NaOH. The resultant suspension was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford (6-(methoxy(methyl)amino)-4-(methylamino)pyridin-3-yl)methanol (3.8 g, 77.6% yield), which was used without further purification. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 7.61 (s, 1 H), 6.08 (s, 1 H), 5.86 (m, 1 H), 4.88 (t, J=5.2 Hz, 1 H), 4.30 (d, J=5.2 Hz, 2 H), 3.64 (s, 3 H), 3.04 (s, 3 H), 2.73 (d, J=4.8 Hz, 3 H); MS (ESI) m/z: 198.2 (M+H+).
