Procedure

To a solution of 2-amino-3-nitroanisole (465 mg, 2.94 mmol) in methanol (50 mL) was added palladium on carbon (10% Pd, 100 mg). The mixture was then placed under an atmosphere of hydrogen gas (1 atm) and was stirred for one hour. The mixture was then filtered through celite and concentrated to give 2,3-diaminoanisole as a yellow foam in a yield of 400 mg (98%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 3.45 (br s, 411 (NH)), 3.84 (s, 3H), 6.40 (m, 2H), 6.67 (t, 1H, J=7.8 Hz)
