Reaction Steps

The nitroester (3) (1.14 g, 4.7 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (50 mL) and shaken over Raney nickel catalyst under an atmosphere of hydrogen (40 psi) at 30° C. After 5 hours, the catalyst was removed by filtration through celite. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give 746 mg (95%) of a pale yellow oil which solidified on standing.
