Reaction Steps

To 3-[(4-nitro)phenoxy]-1-propene prepared by the process of Example 1, Step 1, (12.65 g, 70.67 mmol) in concentrated HCl (85 mL) at 0° C. was slowly added stannous chloride (48 g, 212 mmol). After stirring for 20 minutes at 55° C., the mixture was cooled to 0° C. and carefully basified with 50% NaOH. The cloudy mixture was extracted with ether. The organic phase was decolorized (charcoal), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to afford product (8.50 g, 81%) as a yellow oil which was used directly in the next step.
