Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of 15 g. finely powdered 4-nitrobenzoyl-β-alanine in 200 ml. ethanol was stirred in an atmosphere of hydrogen in the presence of 1 g. of palladium-charcoal (5%), while cooling gently. When the absorption of hydrogen had ceased, the reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate concentrated to a small volume. Upon adding diethyl ether and cooling, 4-aminobenzoyl-β-alanine was obtained. The yield was 11.5 g.; m.p. 156°-158° C.
