Procedure

Ethyl 2-methyl-3-(2-pyridyl)acrylate (7.8 g, 41.0 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (80 ml), and 10% palladium-carbon (1.0 g) and a solution of ammonium formate (11.2 g, 178 mmol) in water (20 ml) was added thereto. The mixture was refluxed for 2 hrs. Palladium-carbon was filtered off. The reaction mixture was combined with water, concentrated under reduced pressure to the half amount and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated to give the titled compound (7.2 g, 91%).
