Ammonium Chloride → 4-(4-CHLORO-1H-PYRAZOL-1-YL)ANILINE

Participants

Reaction Steps

Iron powder (0.75 g, 13.5 mmol) is added to a mixture of 4-chloro-1-(4-nitrophenyl)pyrazole (0.61 g, 2.7 mmol) and ammonium chloride (1.46 g, 27.0 mmol) in 45 ml ethanol and 16 ml water at 65°-70° over a period of 45 min. The reaction mixture is filtered and the solid is washed with ethyl acetate. Solvent is removed from the filtrate and the residue is taken into ethyl acetate, washed with water and with brine and dried to give 4-(4-chloro-1-pyrazolyl)aniline.
