Reaktionsschritte

1-methoxy-2-methyl-4-nitrobenzene (3A) (5 g, 30.0 mmol), 3-amino-1-propanol (0.57 mL, 7.5 mmol), isopropanol (3.43 mL, 4.5 mmol), ruthenium(III) chloride hydrate (156 mg, 0.75 mmol), triphenylphosphine (588 mg, 2.24 mmol), and tin(II) chloride dihydrate (1.69 g, 7.5 mmol) in dioxane/H2O (67 mL/7 mL) were placed in a stainless steel pressure vessel. After the system was flushed with argon, the mixture was stirred at 180° C. for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through a short silica gel column (ethyl acetate/chloroform mixture) to eliminate inorganic compounds and concentrated under reduced pressure. The organic layer was poured into saturated brine, extracted with chloroform, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residual oily material was separated by column chromatography to give the product 3B (200 mg, 15%). LCMS-ESI+ (m/z): 174.2 (M+H)+.
