5-Benzyloxycarbonylamino-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester → Ethyl 5-aminobicyclo[3.2.1]octane-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-Benzyloxycarbonylamino-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (2.0 g, 6.05 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (50.0 mL). Pd/C (10%) (0.32 g, 0.30 mmol) was added. The mixture was hydrogenated under 50 psi H2 at rt for 6 hrs. The catalyst was removed by filtration through a layer of Celite®. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 1.0 g (84%) of the desired product. ESI-MS m/z: 198 (M+H)+.
