Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-ethylamino-2-nitro-pyridine (400 mg), 10% palladium on carbon (40 mg) and 1:1 ethyl acetate:methanol (30 mL) were placed in a Parr apparatus under hydrogen (50 psi) for 50 min. The mixture was filtered through Celite, concentrated, and the product triturated with hexane to give 2-Amino-3-ethylaminopyridine as a brown solid. More material was recovered from the filtrate. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 7.59 (d, J=4.94 Hz, 1H), 6.81 (d, J=6.32 Hz, 1H), 6.71 (dd, J=4.94, 7.69 Hz, 1H), 3.12 (q, J=7.14 Hz, 2h), 1.31 (t, J=7.14 Hz, 3H).
