2-Nitro-4-phenoxyaniline → 4-Phenoxybenzene-1,2-diamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

4.8 G. of 1-amino-2-nitro-4-phenoxybenzene is hydrogenated in 100 ml. methanol at 1 atmosphere pressure, in the presence of 1 g. of 5% palladized carbon, until the theoretical uptake of hydrogen has occurred. The catalyst is removed by filtration and the filtrate evaporated to give 1,2-diamino-4-phenoxybenzene.
