Reaction Steps

To a slurry of PtO2 (0.3 g) in 5 ml of ethanol was added 3-(4-methoxy-1-naphthyloxy)-4-nitropyridine-N-oxide (7.2 g) in 245 ml of ethanol. The material was hydrogenated under pressure (50 PSI) by shaking the slurry on a Parr apparatus for six hours. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate concentrated to yield an oil (5.2 g). This oil was eluted with 5% methanol/DCM on a silica gel column via HPLC. The desired fractions were concentrated to yield an oil which solidified on standing (4.36 g). This material was triturated with ether to yield a solid, 2.85 g, m.p. 126°-129° C.
