Hydrochloric Acid → 4-Amino-2-methoxybenzonitrile

関与物質

反応手順

2-Methoxy-4-nitrobenzonitrile (5.0 g) and iron powder (7.84 g) were suspended in ethanol (150 mL), and concentrated hydrochloric acid (35 mL) was added dropwise at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr, neutralized with sodium hydrogen carbonate, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography, and the obtained solid was washed with hexane to give the title compound as a red-brown solid (yield: 3.05 g, 73%).
