Procedure
4-[(5,6-Dimethoxy-1-indanon-2-ylidene)methyl]pyridine (50 g) in methanol and dichloromethane (1:1) was hydrogenated in presence of palladium on carbon (5 g) and a catalytic quantity of perchloric acid at 0.5 kg pressure and room temperature. The solvents were evaporated under vacuum and the residue was taken in ethyl acetate (500 ml), washed with water (50 ml), brine (50 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated in vacuum to yield the product. Yield: 49 g.
