      Hydrocodone     

https://www.rhodium.ws/chemistry/dihydromorphinones.html

Regarding the text available at the posted link, and the codeine -> dihydrocodeinone (hydrocodone) by rearrangement, can Nickel (Nickel metal or Nickel on Aluminum) be used in place of Pd/Pt in this reaction? I've read somewhere that it can but at some sacrifice to yields, however cannot recall the source.

Also if a powdered mixture of Nickel and Copper and roughly evening amounts was used, how would the presence of the Copper affect the reaction?

Thanks

Has anyone done such synth: codeine -> dihydrocodeinone (hydrocodone) ? It seems as it would be very mg efficient (less hydrocodone is needed than codeine to achieve euphoria)

LoneR says that Pd in dry toluene (rather than acidic aqueous solution) yeilds 30% (see alt.d.c). note even rapoport was apparently unable to replicate this hydrogenation/dehydrogenation to obtain the hydrogenated ketone with any kind of yield.
