Participants

Reaction Steps

7-Methoxy-indan-1-one oxime (5 g, 28 mmol) was suspended in 250 mL methanol. Palladium on charcoal (10%, 0.3 g) was added and the reaction was hydrogenated with a hydrogen ballon for 5 days. Palladium on charcoal was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated. The title compound was obtained as a yellow liquid (1.89, 41%) and used without any further purification for the next step.
