1-Methyl-7-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline → 1-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-7-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of the 1-methyl-7-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (4.0 g, 20.81 mmol), Pd/C (10% w/w; 2 g) in methanol (100 mL) was hydrogenated at 10 PSI for 2 hours. The catalyst was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give the crude product which was used as such without further purification.
