Methanol → 3-(pyridin-4-yl)-1-trityl-1H-indazol-5-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a 500 ml round bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar was added 5-nitro-3-(pyridin-4-yl)-1-trityl-1H-indazole (1332 g, 27.6 mmol) and dissolved in a mixture of toluene:MeOH (120 ml: 40 ml). While stirring, Pd/C (1.5 g, 10% wet) was added. The mixture was then subjected to a hydrogen balloon and stirred overnight. Upon completion of the reaction, which was determined by LC/MS, the mixture was filtered through celite and concentrated under vacuum to give 3-(pyridin-4-yl)-1-trityl-1H-indazol-5-amine (13.21 g) as a yellow solid.
