Procedure
To a solution of 1-t-butoxycarbonyl-2,4-dimethyl-5-nitrobenzimidazole (1.26 g, 4.32 mmol) in methanol (15 mL)/ethyl acetate (100 mL) are added 10% palladium-on-carbon (0.1 g) and ammonium formate (1.09 g, 17.3 mmol). The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 3 hours, then filtered on Celite with a methanol wash of the solids. The filtrate is rotary evaporated and the residue is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 20% ethyl acetate in hexane to afford 5-amino-1-t-butoxycarbonyl-2,4-dimethylbenzimidazole as a white solid.
