4-Quinazolinamine, N,2-dimethyl-N-(4-nitrophenyl)- → N-methyl-N-(2-methylquinazolin-4-yl)benzene-1,4-diamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (2-methyl-quinazolin-4-yl)-(4-nitro-phenyl)-methylamine (200 mg, 0.68 mmol) in 25 mL of ethyl acetate was hydrogenated over Palladium on carbon (70 mg) at 50 psi for 4 h, and the reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of celite and concentrated. The resulting crude product was purified by chromatography (50% ethyl acetate/hexane) to obtain the title compound (140 mg, 78%). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 7.71 (m, 1H), 7.51 (ddd, J=8.4, 6.9, 1.5, 1H), 7.09 (m, 1H), 6.93-7.05 (m, 3H), 6.68 (m, 2H), 3.74 (s, broad, 2H), 3.56 (s, 3H), 2.71 (s, 3H).
