Reaction Steps

In an autoclave 49.5 g (0.117 mole) of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-hexadecyloxy nitrobenzene dissolved in 120 ml of ethanol were hydrogenated using 2.5 ml of Raney-nickel, a hydrogen pressure between 750 and 1500 psi and a temperature of 70° C. After 3 h of agitation the catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was cooled in ice. The residue formed was filtered off, stirred in ethanol and dried. Yield: 39.5 g (86%). Melting point: 61° C.
