Hints

APAAN (α-phenylacetoacetonitrile) began to be imported to Europe for meth. But really looking at structures

But my guess I would look into nitriles into amides or carboxylic acids into your desired compounds.

Hydrolysis of nitriles: Amide vs Carboxylic acid

I was recently studying the preparation of amides,and one of the methods listed was acid hydrolysis of a nitrile. Up until now I thought acid hydrolysis of nitriles yielded carboxylic acids. How ar...

I think it's the same way as converting phenylacetonitrile (Benzyl cyanide) to P2P.
3,4-(Methylenedioxy)phenylacetonitrile → MD-APAAN → MD-P2P (PMK)

Yes that's definitely another way
