## Abstract Attempts are described to simplify the synthesis of vitamin B~6~ by a simultaneous reduction of the ester groups and reductive elimination of the chlorine atom in dimethyl 3‐amino‐6‐chloro‐2‐methylpyridine‐4,5‐dicarboxylate (III) with lithium aluminium hydride. After prolonged refluxing

## Abstract The synthesis of 4,5‐dihydroxymethyl‐6‐hydroxy‐2‐methylpyridine, an isomer of vitamin B~6~, is described. This isomer is biologically inactive on the growth of __Saccharomyces carlsbergensis__.
## Abstract Nor‐vitamin B~6~ is inactive as a substitute for vitamin B~6~ in growth tests with __Saccharomyces carlsbergensis__ and does not inhibit the effect of vitamin B~6~. It has little, if any, effect on the growth of vitamin B~6~‐deficient rats.
## Abstract 3‐Hydroxy‐4‐(hydroxymethyl)‐5‐(hydroxymethyl‐d~2~)‐2‐methylpyridine(pyridoxine‐d~2~) was prepared by reduction of α^4^‐3‐0‐isopropylidene‐5‐pyridoxic acid with lithium aluminum deuteride. Deuterium was inserted in the 2‐methyl group using base catalyzed exchange between deuterium oxide
## Abstract The known synthesis of “Ichiba acid”, 2‐methyl‐3‐hydroxypyridine 4,5‐dicarboxylic acid (VII), starting from ethyl acetylpyruvate and cyanoacetamide, has been reinvestigated and simplified to a five step process. Several derivatives of Ichiba acid have been prepared including the triben
