Thermal substitution of 4‐hydroxypyridine 1 with trifluoroacetaldehyde ethyl hemiacetal (TFAE) leads to a moderate yield of 3‐(1‐hydroxy‐2,2,2‐trifluoroethyl)‐4‐hydroxypyridine 7 in the presence of a catalytic amount of anhydrous potassium carbonate. Under similar conditions, several α‐trifluoromethyl hydroxy‐pyridinemethanols 8–15 are easily prepared from 2‐ or 3‐hydroxypyridines 2–6 .
