Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-(2-(5-ethyl-2-pyridyl)ethoxy)nitrobenzene (23 g) in methanol is hydrogenated under atmospheric pressure in the presence of 10% Pd on carbon (50% humid, 2.5 g). The catalyst is removed by filtering. Distilling the solvent off under reduced pressure gives 4-(2-(5-ethyl-2-pyridyl)ethoxy)aniline as crude oil (20 g, 98%).
