Ethyl(4-nitrophenoxy)acetate (10.0 g, 44.4 mmol) and 10% palladium-carbon (50% water-containing product, 3.0 g) were added to a mixed solution of tetrahydrofuran (50 mL) and ethanol (50 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hr in a hydrogen stream. The catalyst was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=1:2-2:3-1:1), and the obtained crystals were recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to give the title compound (6.4 g, yield 74%) as pale-pink prism crystals.
