Procedure

A mixture of methyl 2-[[(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]amino]-3-nitrobenzoate (10 g), FeCl3.6H2O (0.1 g), activated charcoal (1 g) in a mixture of methanol (100 ml) and THF (50 ml) was heated under reflux for 30 min. Hydrazine hydrate (7.2 ml) was added dropwise to the reaction mixture and the mixture was then heated under reflux for 14 hours. The insoluble material was removed from the reaction mixture by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. Aqueous sodium bicarbonate was added to the resulting residue and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water, dried and evaporated to dryness. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give crystals. Recrystallization from isopropyl ether afforded pale yellow needles (6.0 g, 64%), m.p. 110-111° C.
