Reaktionsschritte

160 Parts of p-nitrobenzotrifluoride is dissolved in 500 parts of ethanol and 1 part platinum oxide catalyst is added. The mixture is placed in a pressure vessel and hydrogen is added at a temperature of 30° C and a pressure of 13.6 atmospheres. The hydrogen pressure is increased to 34 atmospheres during the course of the reaction, which continues until the hydrogen uptake ceases. The excess hydrogen is removed from the reaction vessel under reduced pressure and the catalyst is removed from the mixture by filtration. The solvent is removed from the filtrate under reduced pressure to give 127 parts (94% yield) of p-aminobenzotrifluoride.
