Reaction Steps

A solution of 1.7 g (5.55 mmol) of 2-acetylamino-5-nitro-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid methyl ester in 29 ml of methanol is treated with 250 mg of Pd/C (10%) and the mixture stirred under 5 bars of hydrogen for 20 minutes. The mixture is filtered and the filtrate concentrated in vacuo to give 1.58 g (quantitative) of 2-acetylamino-5-amino-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid methyl ester as yellow crystals, m.p. 143-152° C.
