Following the addition of 10% Pd/C (dry, 0.01 g/g 14-hydroxycodeinone) and water (0.01 g/g 14-hydroxycodeinone) to compensate for the water in the dry Pd/C catalyst, the hydrogenation was performed with hydrogen being introduced at 80° C. The reaction was sampled after 22 h and was determined to be complete. This reaction resulted in low levels of 6α-oxycodol. After isolation (84% yield by LOD), the level of 6α-oxycodol was also determined to be low by analysis.
