Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3.5 g of 3,4-bis(tetradecyloxy)nitrobenzene and 0.5 g of 10% palladium on carbon in 80 ml of THF and 40 ml of ethyl acetate was stirred in a hydrogen atmosphere for 4 hours when uptake ceased. The catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated at reduced pressure to a solid which was recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to give 2.9 g (88% yield, mp 55°-58°) of 3,4-bis(tetradecyloxy)benzenamine.
