Procedure

A suspension of 3-(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)pyridine (26 g, 119 mmol) in EtOH (200 ml) and EtOAc (200 ml) was treated with PtO2 (1.35 g, 6 mmol) then exposed to 50 psi hydrogen until uptake ceased (circa 3 hours). The reaction was filtered through glass-microfibre filter paper and concentrated to gave 3-(2-fluoro-5-aminophenyl)pyridine (22.4 g) as a dark oil which solidified on standing: δH (360 MHz, CDCl3) 3.65 (2H, s), 6.65-6.72 (2H, m), 6.99 (1H, dd, J 9 and 9), 7.33-7.37 (1H, m), 7.84-7.86 (1H, m), 8.58 (1H, d, J 4), 8.76 (1H, m).
