Methyl 2-(methyl(4-nitrobenzyl)amino)acetate → HCID 18472314, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 2-(methyl(4-nitrobenzyl)amino)acetate (0.800 g, 3.36 mmol) and Pt2O (0.080 g, 0.352 mmol) in EtOAc (30 ml) was hydrogenated at 15 psi for 1 hour. The catalyst was filtered off, and the solvent was removed. Methyl 2-((4-aminobenzyl)(methyl)amino)acetate was obtained (0.680 g, 3.27 mmol, 97% yield, MS/ESI+ 209.2 [MH]+) and used in the next step without further purification.
