Procedure

Zinc dust (14.3 g, 219 mmol) was added to a stirring mixture of N-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)-3-nitropyridin-2-amine (C1) (6.78 g, 27.4 mmol) and ammonium chloride (11.7 g, 219 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (55 mL) and water (55 mL), which caused the temperature of the mixture to rise to 45° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 10 minutes, and then filtered through a pad of Celite, rinsing with ethyl acetate. The organic layer from the filtrate was further diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with aqueous ammonium chloride solution and with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford the product as a black solid (6.6 g), the bulk of which was taken directly to the following step. LCMS m/z 218.1 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3), characteristic product peaks: δ 7.84 (dd, J=4.9, 1.6 Hz, 1H), 7.01 (dd, J=7.6, 1.6 Hz, 1H), 6.82 (br dd, J=8, 2 Hz, 1H), 6.77 (dd, J=7.6, 4.9 Hz, 1H), 2.20 (d, J=2 Hz, 3H).
