Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.03 g. (6.3mM) of N-ethyl-N-n-heptyl-4(4-nitrophenyl)butylamine in 100 ml of 2B ethanol containing 1 g of 5% palladium on carbon was stirred under hydrogen at 50 p.s.i. for sixteen hours at 25° C. The reaction mixture was filtered and the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure to give 1.49 g of N-ethyl-N-n-heptyl-4-(4-aminophenyl)butylamine as an oil.
