反応手順

Iron powder (150 g, 2.68 mol) and AcOH (600 mL) were charged into a 2 L round bottom flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer and thermometer. The mixture as warmed to 80° C. 4-Chloro-3-methylnitrobenzene (150 g, 0.87 mol) in AcOH (200 mL) was added slowly to the flask over 4 h, keeping the reaction temperature below 90° C. Upon consumption of the reactants, the mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite and the filter cake was washed with methanol (200 mL). The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was poured into 1.5 L of ice water (1:1) and the resulting precipitate was filtered. The crude product was dissolved in 300 mL 6N HCl in water/dioxane (1:1) and stirred at 100° C. for 3 h. It was then cooled to room temperature and the precipitate was filtered and dried to provide 130 g of 4-chloro-3-methyl-phenylamine hydrochloride as a colorless powder.
