2-(4-chloro-2-nitro-phenoxy)-1-[4-(4-fluoro-benzyl)-(2R)-2-methyl-piperazin-1-yl]-ethanone → 2-(2-Amino-4-chloro-phenoxy)-1-[4-(4-fluoro-benzyl)-(2R)-2-methyl-piperazin-1-yl]-ethanone

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(4-chloro-2-nitro-phenoxy)-1-[4-(4-fluoro-benzyl)-(2R)-2-methyl-piperazin-1-yl]-ethanone (0.55 g, 1.3 mmol) in ethanol (25 mL) was added platinum dioxide on carbon (0.50 g, 5% on carbon). The reaction was subject to 35 psi hydrogen gas for 20 minutes. The reaction was then filtered through celite and the filtrate was concentrated to give the title compound (0.42 g).
