Procedure
A solution of (8-nitromethyl-1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-yl)-acetic acid methyl ester (5.34 g, 19.5 mmol) in 35 mL of methanol was purged with nitrogen. A portion of about 430 mg of Raney 2800 nickel was added. The reaction mixture was purged with hydrogen and a positive pressure of hydrogen was maintained overnight using a balloon. Then, the final mixture was purged with nitrogen and filtered through a pad of celite washing with methanol. The filtrate was concentrated to afford 1,4-dioxa-10-aza-dispiro[4.2.4.2]tetradecan-11-one (3.95 g, 96%) as a white solid.
