Procedure

4-(3,4-Dinitrobenzyl)morpholine (21 g, 101 mmol) was suspended in ethanol (0.9 L) and the vessel purged with nitrogen. 10% Palladium on charcoal (1.05 g) was suspended in ethanol (25 mL) and added to the substrate. The mixture was cooled in ice then the atmosphere exchanged for hydrogen. The mixture was allowed to warm to 15-20° C. and hydrogenation continued at ambient pressure for 2 days. The vessel was purged with nitrogen then the mixture was filtered through Celite, rinsing with ethanol (0.3 L) in portions. Concentration afforded the title compound (15.8 g, 97%).
