Reaction Steps

4-(3-Methoxybenzyl)nitrobenzene (0.50 g, 2.10 mmol) was dissolved in ETOH (25 mL) and 10% palladium on carbon (0.50 g) was added under a nitrogen stream. The reaction mixture was hydrogenated on a Parr shaker at 50 psi for 16 h. The reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to give 0.34 g (77%) of 4-(3-methoxybenzyl)aniline as an oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ7.15 (t, J=8.1 Hz, 1H), 6.95 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 6.70 (m, 3H), 6.60 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 3.85 (s, 2H), 3.75 (s, 3H), 3.45 (bs, 2H).
