Ethanol → 3-(Morpholine-4-carbonyl)aniline

Participants

Reaction Steps

Morpholin-4-yl-(3-nitro-phenyl)-methanone (2.74 g, 11.6 mmol) was dissolved in Ethanol (30.0 mL, 514 mmol) and the solution was carefully added to a Parr vessel containing 10% Palladium on Carbon (0.750 g, 56.2 mmol) under nitrogen. The mixture was then placed on a Parr hydrogenation apparatus and was allowed to shake at 55 psi until uptake of hydrogen ceased. The catalyst was then filtered to afford (3-Amino-phenyl)-morpholin-4-yl-methanone without further purification. (M+H)=207.6.
