Reaction Steps

N,N-diethyl-2-(4-methoxy-3-nitrophenoxy)ethylamine (0.29 g, 1.1 mmol) was hydrogenated over Pd (5% on C, 50% wet, 0.12 g) in ethanol (5 ml) for 16 hours. The catalyst was filtered off and the solvent removed under reduced pressure to afford the title compound as a red oil. MS (m/z)=239 (M+H+); Calc'd for C13H22N2O2=238.33.
