Benzyl 2-nitrophenyl ether → 2-Benzyloxyaniline

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a stirred solution of 2-benzyloxynitrobenzene (9.92 g, 43.3 mmol) and NiCl2 (20.3 g, 157 mmol) in MeOH (350 mL) was added portionwise NaBH4 (8.09 g, 214 mmol) at 0° C. After disappearing of the starting material (monitored by TLC), the mixture was evaporated off. The black precipitate was dissolved in 1 N HCl, then acidic solution was alkalified by the addition of 1 N NaOH and extracted with EtOAc. The extracts were washed brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated to dryness. Chromatography of the residue with CHCl3 as eluent gave 2-benzyloxy aniline (8.60 g, 100%) as a reddish oil. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 3.71 (broad s , 2H), 5.06 (s, 2H), 6.68–6.86 (m, 4H), 7.32–7.44 (m, 51); FAB-MS m/z 200 (M++1).
