Reaction Steps

2-Methyl-4-nitro-1-phenoxybenzene and 10% Pd/C (3.35 g) were dissolved in 200 mL EtOH and stirred under 1 atmosphere of H2 overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite with the aid of 50 mL EtOH and concentrated to provide 3-methyl-4-phenoxybenzenamine as an oil, which was used in Step C without further purification.
