4-(4-Methylpyridin-2-yl)-2-nitrotoluene → HCID 18667479, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 4-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)-2-nitrotoluene (342 mg) in ethanol (7 ml) was hydrogenated over palladium on carbon (10% w/w, 50% wet, 103 mg) under a hydrogen atmosphere for 3 hours. The catalyst was filtered off, and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 2-methyl-5-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)aniline (297 mg).
