A mixture of iron powder (27 g, 0.48 g atoms), ammonium formate (31 g, 500 mmol), 1-(4-benzyloxy-5-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone (36 g, 120 mmol), toluene (500 mL) and water (500 mL) was heated to reflux overnight. The mixture was filtered through celite and washed with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with water and brine. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to afford 1-(2-amino-4-benzyloxy-5-methoxyphenyl)ethanone (29.3 g, 90%). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 7.41-7.30 (m, 5H), 7.13 (s, 1H), 6.16 (br s, 2H), 6.10 (s, 1H), 5.13 (s, 2H), 3.83 (s, 3H), 2.51 (s, 3H). LC/MS (M+H=272).
