To a solution of 2-methyl-3-nitro anisole A1 (5.1 g; 30.33 mmol; requires ˜30 min to dissolve) in absolute ethanol (85 mL) was added 10% Pd/C catalyst (500 mg). The solution was hydrogenated under a hydrogen filled balloon at atmospheric pressure and room temperature for 19 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through a Celite pad, rinsed and evaporated to dryness to obtain 2-methyl-3-methoxyaniline A2 as a deep mauve oil (4.1 g; 29.81 mmol; 98% yield).
