Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(3-nitrophenethyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide (9.05 g, 34.5 mmol) in MeOH (125 ml) at RT was added 10% Pd/C (50% H2O wet) (3.67 g, 1.73 mmol). The resulting suspension was placed under H2 (3 atm) at RT overnight. The reaction was filtered through Celite® and the cake rinsed with MeOH. The filtrate was concentrated to provide N-(3-aminophenethyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide as an oil (7.83 g, 98% yield). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.16-7.12 (m, 1H), 6.62-6.58 (m, 2H), 6.54-6.53 (m, 1H), 6.34 (brs, 1H), 3.61 (q, J=6.40 Hz, 2H), 2.80 (t, J=6.40 Hz, 2H), 2.68 (brs, 2H); MS (ESI) m/z: 233.3 (M+H+).
