Dimethylformamide → HCID 19874055, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 8-acetyl-5-ethoxalylamino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-nitronaphthalene (0.67 g, 2 mmol) in 100 ml of ethanol was hydrogenated at room temperature and atmospheric pressure over 50 mg of 5% platinum on carbon for 1 h. Then 50 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide was added to dissolve the precipitated solid, and the catalyst was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was washed with 50 ml of ethanol to give 0.40 g (73%) of the title compound. M.p. >200° C. decomp. (DSC); IR (KBr): 1709, 1677 cm-1, 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6): 1.43-1.93 (m, 4H, 2CH2), 2.57 (s, 3H, COCH3), 2.53-3.07 (m, 4H, 2CH2), 7.57 (s, 1H, H-7), 11.4 (very broad s, 2H, OH and NH); MS (m/e: 274 (M+, 100%).
