Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-Nitro-N-phenylbenzenemethanesulphonamide (11.0 g), in ethyl acetate (400 ml) was hydrogenated at room temperature and pressure over pre-reduced 10% palladium oxide on charcoal (1.0 g, 50% paste with water) for 4 h until hydrogen uptake ceased (2.7 l). Methanol (400 ml) was added, the catalyst filtered off, and the filtrate evaporated in vacuo to give the title compound as a white solid (8.98 g), m.p. 180°-182°.
