Procedure
A solution of 22.5 g (0.072 mol) of 2-amino-3-benzoyl-α-(methylthio)-N-methylphenylacetamide in 400 ml of tetrahydrofuran was treated with 160 g of wet Raney nickel (washed 3 times with water and 3 times with tetrahydrofuran) for 10 minutes. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was crystallized from isopropyl alcohol to give 17.2 g (89%) of yellow needles, m.p. 145°-146° C.
