In 75 ml of ammonia water containing 0.033 mole of ammonia, 5 g. of trans-4-cyanocyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid was dissolved. To this solution, 0.5 g. of Raney cobalt developed by a known method was added. The whole mixture was shaken in an atmosphere of hydrogen under a normal pressure for about 5 hrs. until 0.066 mole of hydrogen had been absorbed. The reduction product was treated as described in Example 1, and 4.1 g. of trans-4-aminomethylcyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid was obtained.
