Tert-butyl 2-nitro-4-(3-phenyl-1-propenyl)benzoate → Tert-butyl 2-amino-4-(3-phenylpropyl)benzoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

62 mg of 5% palladium-carbon was added to 3 mL of ethyl acetate solution containing 0.31g of tert-butyl 2-nitro-4-(3-phenyl-1-propenyl)benzoate at room temperature and stirred under hydrogen atmosphere at the same temperature for 5 hours and 30 minutes. Insoluble were removed by filtration, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain 0.31 g of tert-butyl 2-amino-4-(3-phenylpropyl)benzoate as yellow oil.
