Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-[(4-nitrophenyl)methyl]morpholine (220 mg, 1.0 mmol, Step A), iron powder (279 mg, 5.0 mmol) and NH4Cl (39 mg, 0.7 mmol) in EtOH (3 mL) and H2O (3 mL) was stirred for 4 h at 80° C. Filtration and concentration gave the crude 4-(morpholin-4-ylmethyl)-phenylamine, which was used in next step without further purification.
