Bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl) ether → HCID 15312385, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The dinitro compound obtained from Example 7 (22.1 g, 0.035 mole) was mixed with 10% Pd/C. (2.2 g) in ethyl acetate/ethanol (6/4 by volume, 88 g) solvent. Hydrogenation was carried out with 50-60 psi of hydrogen pressure at ambient temperature for about 6 hrs. After reaction, the solution was filtered to remove the metal residue and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The final diamino product was purified by distillation, 4.75 g of (24% yield) clear, viscous liquid was obtained. Bp. 120° C./0.02 mm.
