Procedure

To a solution of (1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-7-methoxy-1-naphthylidene)acetonitrile (15.0 g, 25 mmol) in ethanol (100 ml) were added a saturated ammonia/ethanol solution (30 ml) and Raney nickel (W-2, 3 g). The reaction mixture was stirred for 8 hours at 50° C. under hydrogen atmosphere (3-4 kgf /cm2). The Raney nickel was filtered off, then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to give the above-titled compound (a mixture of isomers (20.4 g, yield 80%, oil). This compound was used in the subsequent reaction without further purification.

Workup

  1. filtrationThe Raney nickel was filtered off
  2. distillationthe solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure
