Reaction Steps

A solution of methyl 2-(4-nitrophenyl)propionate (20.0 g) in aqueous ammonia (d=0.88, 350 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 36 h. The resultant solid was collected and dried in vacuo at 50° to give the title compound (13.4 g). A sample (0.1 g) was crystallised from water to give analytically pure material m.p. 120°-121°.
