Reaktionsschritte

1-Benzyloxy-2-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (10.0 g, 37.9 mmol) and iron powder (10.6 g, 189.6 mmol) were mixed in 250 mL acetic acid and were stirred at rt overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite®, and washed with EtOAc. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and neutralized with saturated Na2CO3 solution. The contents were extracted with EtOAc (6×300 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting crude material was triturated with Hex/EtOAc (2:1) to furnish 4-Benzyloxy-3-chloro-phenylamine (7.8 g, 88%) as a white solid. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.43-7.30 (m, 5H), 6.90 (d, 1H), 6.63 (d, 1H), 6.46 (dd, 1H), 4.99 (s, 2H), 4.92 (s, 2H); LCMS RT=2.09 min; [M+H]+=234.5.
