Procedure

To a suspension of 2-chloro-N-methyl-5-nitro-benzamide (2.3 mmol) in concentrated hydrochloric acid (3 ml) was added a solution of tin dichloride (1.4 g, 7.2 mmol) in concentrated hydrochloric acid (4 ml). After stirring for 20 hours, the mixture was cooled in an ice bath and treated with 50% sodium hydroxide to basic pH. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×25 ml). The combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 5-amino-2-chloro-N-methylbenzamide (274 mg, 88% yield).
