Reaction Steps

A 100-mL round bottomed flask was charged with methyl 2-[(4-nitrophenyl)methyl]-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate (220 mg, 0.84 mmol), Pd/C (270 mg, 10 wt %, 0.255 mmol, 0.3 eq.) and EtOH (24 ml). The mixture was stirred under 1 atmosphere of hydrogen overnight. The insoluble material was removed by filtration and the organics was evaporated under reduced pressure to dryness to afford the title compound (177 mg, 91% yield). The product thus obtained was forwarded to the next step without any further purification.
