Procedure

To a solution of Compound 35A (1 g) in methanol (30 mL) was added Raney-Ni (0.05 g) and the resulting mixture was cooled at 0-5° C.; 98% hydrazine hydrate (1.5 mL) was dropped in at the same temperature and the suspension stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The catalyst was filtered off and the solvents evaporated in vacuo. The crude was dissolved in dichloromethane (100 mL) and washed with water (60 mL); the organic layer was dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated to dryness affording 0.78 g (90%) of the title product as a yellow oil.
