6-Nitroindoline → Indolin-6-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-nitroindoline (1 g, 6.1 mmol) in 50 mL of ethyl acetate was hydrogenated under an atmosphere of hydrogen with Pd-C 10% (100 mg) at rt for 3 h. Filtration over celite afforded 1.0 g (98%) of 6-aminoindoline. Data for 6-aminoindoline: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 7.40 (d, J=7.4, 1H), 6.05 (d, J=2.0, 1H), 6.03 (d, J=7.5, 1H), 3.67 (bs, 1H), 3.49 (t, J=8.1, 2H), 3.48 (bs, 2H), 2.90 (t, J=8.2, 2H).
