HCID 213251502-Hydroxy-5-[1-hydroxy-2-(isopropylamino)ethyl]benzeneacetonitrile

Procedure

The procedure of Example 1(c) is repeated with substitution of an equimolar amount of isopropylamine for phenyl-t-butylamine in that example. The resulting aminoketone, 5-[N-(isopropylamino)glycyl]-2-hydroxyphenylacetonitrile, is reduced according to the procedure of Example 1(d) to yield 2-hydroxy-5-[1-hydroxy-2-(isopropylamino)ethyl]-benzeneacetonitrile.
