0.05 g of 10% palladium-carbon was added to a solution of 1 g of N-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-N-(trans-4-methylcyclohexyl)-4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamamide (Example 79) in 60 ml of methanol. Under normal-pressure hydrogen gas, the solution was vigorously stirred. After 16 hours, the reaction was ceased, the catalyst was filtered out, and the solvent was removed in vacuo from the filtrate. The product obtained was recrystallized from methylene chloride/ether, yielding 0.94 g of N-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-N-(trans-4-methylcyclohexyl)-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)propionamide (a compound of the present invention) as white crystal, which had the following physiochemical properties:
