Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-chloronitrobenzene (20 g), potassium carbonate (35 g) and copper (I) iodide (1.21 g)in cyclohexylamine (43.6 ml) was heated at 150° under nitrogen for 18 h. The mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and was adsorbed onto silica. This was chromatographed with hexane-EA (98:2) as eluent to give the title compound (22.94 g) as an orange solid.
