Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(5-pyrrolidin-1-ylpentyl)phthalimide (3) (3.27 g, 11.42 mmol) dissolved in ethanol (100 ml) was added NH2NH2.H2O (hydrazine monohydrate) (5.54 ml, 114.19 mmol) at room temperature, and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 24 hours. After the reaction was completed, the resulting reaction mixture was filtered under reduced pressure to give the target compound (1.50 g, 84%).
