Attempts to reduce the 3-oxo-group in the ketol pyridinium sulphate (181), using sodium borohydride in anhydrous methanol, afforded instead the stable 3,3-dimethoxy-derivative (182), The pyridinium ion is sufficiently acidic to promote this acetalization, although alkali-metal salts of the ketol sulphate were...
