Procedure
The α-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethylamino)-monobenzyloxyacetophenone (III) or α-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethylaminomethyl)-monobenzyloxybenzylalcohol (IV) is then subjected to catalytic hydrogenation to give the α-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethylaminomethyl)-monohydroxybenzylalcohol (I). Said catalytic hydrogenation is carried out by shaking a solution of the compound (III) or (IV) in the presence of a catalyst in a hydrogen atmosphere. Preferred examples of the catalyst include platinum dioxide, platinum and palladium-carbon. A lower alkanol (e.g., methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol) or a mixture of the lower alkanol and water is suitable as the reaction solvent. It is preferred to carry out the reaction at 5° to 20° C. under atmospheric pressure.
