Raney nickel catalyst (approx 5 g) was added to a solution of 3-butyloxybenzyl cyanide (38.64 g, prepared according to example 1 D) in saturated ammoniacal methanol (700 cm3). The resulting mixture was heated at 70° C. in the presence of hydrogen (45 Atmospheres) for two hours and was then allowed to cool to room temperature overnight. The cooled mixture was filtered to remove the catalyst and was then evaporated down to give a green oil (42.2 g).
