4-Nitrodiphenyl ether (3.92 g, 18 mmol) was hydrogenated over Raney nickel (1.5 g) in methanol (100 mL) at 25° C. at 50 psi for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was celite filtered, and the volatiles were stripped rigourously under reduced pressure to give 4-phenoxyaniline (3.32 g, 97.6%) as an off-white solid.
