Procedure

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, a solution of 1-(3-chloropropoxy)-3-nitrobenzene (7.90 g, 36.64 mmol) in ethanol was added to 10% palladium on carbon in a Parr hydrogenation bottle. The mixture was hydrogenated on a Parr shaker. Because of very little hydrogen uptake, Raney® nickel (50% slurry in water) was carefully added to the reaction mixture and hydrogenation continued. When hydrogenation was complete the mixture was filtered through a mat of Celite® filter aid. The filtrate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator to an oil.
