Reaction Steps

A suspension of 4′-mercapto-3′-nitroacetanilide (3.0 g, 14 mmol) and 10% Pd/C (0.6 g) in MeOH (200 mL) was hydrogenated at 60 psi overnight. The catalyst was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated to give 3′-amino-4′-mercaptoacetanilide (2.5 g, 13 mmol), which was used in the next reaction immediately.
