Procedure
A suspension of 7-tert-butyl-2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-5-nitro-benzothiophene (2.6 g, 8.8 mmol) in absolute EtOH (60 mL) is hydrogenated at 40 psi of H2 pressure on a Parr hydrogenation apparatus for 3 h at 22° C. The reaction is judged complete by TLC (hexane:EtOAc, 19:1; visualized with Dragendorff reagent). The reaction mixture is filtered through Celite and evaporated to yield the title compound as a purple solid, which is used without further purification.
