Reaction Steps

1-[2-(Dimethylamino)-1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)ethyl]cyclohexanol (30 g) was dissolved in methanol (600 ml), charged with 10% palladium on carbon (3 g) and hydrogenated pressure for 6 h at room temperature. The catalyst was filtered, washed with methanol, and combined filtrate evaporated under reduced pressure to give 18 g (81.08%) of the 1-[2-(dimethylamino)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]cyclohexanol.
