Reaktionsschritte

Raney nickel (24 g) was added to a stirred solution under nitrogen of 5-nitro-2-(2-cyanoethyl)-3-methylpyridine (10.36 g) in ethanol (700 ml). Hydrazine hydrate (13.5 ml) in ethanol (30 ml) was added over 2.75 hr., followed by further additions of Raney nickel (15 g) and hydrazine hydrate (60 ml) over two days which included two periods of eight hours at 50° C. The solution was decanted off, filtered through a hyflo pad and concentrated to dryness to give a green oil (13 g). This oil was chromatographed on silica in ethylacetate/ethanol/0.880 ammonia 15:10:2 to give the title compound as an oil (8.14 g).
