Participants

Reaction Steps

A pressure flask was charged with a suspension 2-(dimethylamino)-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethanol (160 mg, 0.770 mmol) in ethanol (10 mL) and Raney nickel (0.5 mL). The flask was placed on a Parr shaker, purged with H2 (30 psi), and stirred for 4 h. The crude product was filtered through celite, and concentrated to obtain the crude product (210 mg) as an off-white solid: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.11-7.09 (m, 2H), 6.71-6.69 (m, 2H), 4.61-4.70 (m, 1H), 2.61-2.58 (m, 1H), 2.40-2.32 (m, 1H), 2.31 (s, 3H).
