5-nitro-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyrimidine → 2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyrimidin-5-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A Parr Shaker bottle was charged with Pd/C (10% wet; degussa type; 300 mg) and the 5-nitro-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyrimidine (1.18 g, 4.55 mmol) in ethyl acetate (91 mL). Shaked at 40 psi of H2 (g) for 8 hours. Crude mixture filtered through celite and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyrimidin-5-amine (1.78 g, 98%) as an orange solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 5.85 (s, 2H) 8.15 (s, 1H) 8.18 (s, 2H) 8.95 (s, 1H); MS (M+1): 230.2.
