Procedure

To a mixture of 3-chloro-2-nitroaniline (684 mg) and EtOH (5 mL) were added ammonium chloride (353 mg) and water (1.5 mL), followed by adding zinc powder (1.38 g) at 80° C., and heating and stirring at 80° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, filtered over Celite, and washed with EtOAc. This filtrate was washed with a saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution and brine in this order, dried over MgSO4, and then concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 3-chlorobenzene-1,2-diamine.
