(R)-2-((1-butyrylpiperidin-2-yl)methoxy)-6-nitrobenzonitrile → (R)-2-amino-6-((1-butyrylpiperidin-2-yl)methoxy)benzonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-2-((1-butyrylpiperidin-2-yl)methoxy)-6-nitrobenzonitrile (Example 16b, 1.5 g, 4.53 mmol) in ethanol (40 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (300 mg). The reaction mixture was charged with hydrogen balloon at room temperature overnight then then filtered through celite and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by Biotage SP-1 (40s column) eluting with EtOAc/Hexane (10%-70%) to give the desired product as an oil (1.1 g, 81%).
