Reaction Steps

5% Palladium/carbon catalyst (9 g) was added to a solution of the product of step (b) (115 g) in ethanol (500 ml). The mixture was shaken with hydrogen at an overpressure of 4 to 5 psi at room temperature for 1 hour. The catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate concentrated and cooled. The precipitated solid was filtered off and dried to give 7-acetyl-6-hydroxy-5-propyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (96 g), mp 52°-53°.
