Procedure
0.5 g of palladium on charcoal (10%) were added to 5 g (19.5 mmol) of 2-[4-(benzyloxy)-3-methoxyphenyl]ethylamine [cf.: Heterocycles, Vol. 28, 297-298 (1989)] in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran and the mixture was hydrogenated under atmospheric pressure. After the uptake of hydrogen had ended, the mixture was filtered and the filtrate was freed from the solvent.
