(RS)-S-(2-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)-S-methylsulfoximide → (4-Amino-2-methoxyphenyl)(imino)methyl-lambda6-sulfanone

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.5 g (6.5 mmol) of (RS)-S-(2-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)-S-methylsulfoximide in 100 ml of ethanol is mixed with 300 mg of palladium on carbon (10%×50% H2O) and hydrogenated for 45 minutes at room temperature and normal pressure. The batch is filtered and concentrated by evaporation. 1.0 g (5.1 mmol, corresponding to 79% of theory) of the product is obtained.
