Prac. Chem. 33, 307-308 (1966); CA 66, 37580c. To a stirred solution of sodium hydroxide solution (1 g in 40 ml) in a round bottom flask was added 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (4.93 g, 0.025 mol). The solid dissolved at once giving an orange color solution. 10% Pd-C (50 mg) was added followed by dropwise addition of hydrazine monohydrate (3.25 ml). After the completion of the addition (5 minutes), the mixture was heated at 60° C. for 1.5 hr. The temperature was raise to reflux and heating continued for additional 0.5 hr. The solution appeared clear with Pd-c suspended in it. The solution was filtered hot, concentrated to half of the volume and then cooled. The solution was acidified carefully to pH 4-5 with acetic acid. The white precipitate separated after cooling was filtered off and washed with ethanol. m.p. 225-227° C. lit2. 229-230° C.
