Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl 5-cyano-4,4-diphenyl-2-pentenoate (0.7 g) in ethanol (20 ml) was added 10% palladium-on-carbon (0.24 g), and the mixture was subjected to catalytic hydrogenation at atmospheric pressure and temperature. The catalyst in the reaction mixture was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The group was purified by silica gel column chromatography to provide the title compound (0.6 g) as colorless oil.
