Ammonia → 1-[4-(4-Chloro-2-fluoro-phenoxy)-phenyl]-ethylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.60 g (9.3 mmol) of 1-[4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenoxy)-phenyl]-ethanone-oxime were dissolved in 20 mL methanol, then combined with 30 mL 7N methanolic ammonia solution and after the addition of 0.2 g Raney nickel hydrogenated at ambient temperature and 50 psi hydrogen pressure. Then the catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated down. The crude product thus obtained was reacted further without any further purification.
