[2-(aminomethyl)phenyl]methanol can be used as organic synthesis intermediate and pharmaceutical intermediate, mainly used in laboratory research and development process and chemical production process. | [Synthesis]
(4-Aminomethyl-phenyl)-methanol hydrochloride salt 4-Hydroxymethyl-benzonitrile (2.0 g, 15 mol) was reduced using Raney nickel (0. 5g) and hydrogen (50 psi) in MeOH: NH3 (100ml) for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of celite. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford (4-aminomethyl-phenyl)-methanol hydrochloride salt (2.01 g, 98percent) as a white solid of sufficient purity for use without further purification: MS (APCI+) : m/z 138.3 (M+H). |
