4-Diphenylmethoxypyridine-1-oxide (5.0 g; 0.018 m) was hydrogenated in ethanol (100 ml) at a pressure of 2 atmospheres using 5 g, of freshly alcohol washed Crosfield Raney nickel. After two hours at room temperature the mixture was filtered, and the solvent removed, leaving an oil that crystallised from petrol (60-80) to give 3.05 g of 4-diphenylmethoxypyridine as white crystals, m.pt. 68°-70° C.
