Reaction Steps

The procedure in Example 6: step b was followed using 6-bromo-pyridine-2-carbaldehyde (600 mg, 3.23 mmol), trimethyl orthoformate (8 mL), and toluenesulfonic acid (100 mg) in MeOH (50 mL). Analogous aqueous workup yielded the product (743 mg) which was used without further purification.
