Reaction Steps

A suspension of 10% palladium on carbon (0.24 g) and 2b (2.39 g, 12.3 mmol) in methanol (65 ml) was shaken under 25 lbs H2 in a Parr hydrogenation apparatus. After 3 h, the catalyst was filtered and the filtrate evaporated to afford 1.63 g (81%) of compound 2c. An analytical sample was recrystallization from MeOH/hexane. Mp 216°-7° C.
