Procedure

To 19.0 g of 2-(2-nitrophenyl)oxazole, (prepared by the procedure of W. E. Cass, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 64, 785 [1942]) 3.0 g of Raney-Nickel catalyst (purchased from Aldrich Chemical Company, Milwaukee, Wisc. 53201) and 200 ml ethanol were combined and reduced at ambient temperature and at a H2 pressure of 5-50 psi on a Paar Hydrogenator until the hydrogen uptake ceased. The catalyst was filtered through celite under a blanket of nitrogen. The solvent was removed on a rotary evaporator. 17.4 g of crude product with m.p. 31°-32° was obtained and used in the next step.
