A solution of 4-cyanophenylacetic acid (12.11 g, 0.075 mol) in water (163 mL) and concentrated aqueous ammonia (40 mL) was stirred at room temperature and Raney nickel (6.3 g) was added. The resulting suspension was stuirred under a hydrogen atmosphere for 24 hours before the reaction mixture was filtered through celite and evaporated in vacuo to give crude 4-(aminomethyl)-phenylacetic acid (12.57 g; 100%) as a pale blue solid.
