Procedure
Step C A suspension of 4-(3-methoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran (0.4 g, 1.6 mmol) and Pd/C (Aldrich, 10%, 0.1 g) in ethyl acetate (10 mL) was vigorously shaken in a Parr under atmosphere of H2 (50 psi) for 0.5 h. The mixture was filtered through a short pad of celite. The filtrate was concentrated to give 2-methoxy-4-(tetrahydro-pyran-4-yloxy)-phenylamine as a light yellow oil (0.3 g, 85%).
