Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of LiAlH4 (1.1 g) in THF (15 mL) is added a solution of ethyl 2-(4-fluorophenyl)hydrazinecarboxylate (1.9 g, 9.59 mmol) in THF (10 mL) dropwise under nitrogen in an ice-salt bath. After the addition, the ice bath is removed and the mixture is heated to 60° C. overnight. The reaction is cooled and quenched with water. The precipitate is filtered and washed with EtOAc. The organic phase is separated, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. The residue is purified by flash chromatography, eluting with PE:EtOAc (80:1 to 60:1) to afford the title compound (1 g, 74% yield). MS (m/z): 141 (M+H).
