2-tert-Butyl-7-nitro-6-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole-4-carboxylic Acid → HCID 68584986, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-tert-Butyl-7-nitro-6-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole-4-carboxylic acid (I-223) (6.27 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (30 ml), then at room temperature, 10% palladium-carbon (430 mg) was added. The suspension was stirred at room temperature under atmospheric pressure of hydrogen for 16 hour. The catalyst was removed by filtration with washing with methanol, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by middle-pressure liquid chromatography (eluent, chloroform:methanol=98:2) to obtain the entitled compound (1.274 g, 66% from I-222) as a pale brown powder.
