5-(3-Methylazetidin-1-yl)-2-nitropyridine → 5-(3-Methylazetidin-1-yl)pyridin-2-amine

A 250-mL Parr reactor bottle was purged with nitrogen and charged with 10% palladium on carbon (50% wet, 800 mg dry weight) and a solution of 236a (2.58 g, 13.4 mmol) in a mixture of ethanol (25 mL) and ethyl acetate (25 mL). The bottle was attached to a Parr hydrogenator, evacuated, charged with hydrogen gas to a pressure of 50 psi and shaken for 3 h. After this time, the hydrogen was evacuated, and nitrogen was charged into the bottle. Celite 521 (3.50 g) was added, and the mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite 521. The filter cake was washed with ethanol (2×50 mL), and the combined filtrates were concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to afford a quantitative yield of 236b (2.21 g) as a purple oil: 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) d 7.19 (d, 1H, J=3.0 Hz), 6.66 (dd, 1H, J=9.0, 3.0 Hz), 6.36 (d, 1H, J=8.5 Hz), 5.13 (br s, 2H), 3.81 (t, 2H, J=7.5 Hz), 3.21 (t, 2H, J=6.5 Hz), 2.70 (m, 1H), 1.18 (d, 3H, J=7.0 Hz); MS (ESI+) m/z 164.1 (M+H).
