Reaction Steps

N-(3-nitro-5-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-methylsulfonamide (0.1 g; 0.4 mmol) ammonium formate (0.1 g; 1.8 mmol) and Raney-Nickel (16 mg) were dissolved in 0.4 mL of dioxane. The reaction was heated to 140° C. for 6 minutes in a micro wave reactor. The mixture was then diluted with dichloromethane, filtrated and the filtrate concentrated. 70 mg (0.27 mmol; 68% yield) of an orange oil were obtained.
