Reaction Steps

A suspension of 2-(3-nitrophenyl)oxazolo[5,4-c]pyridine (1.20 g, 5 mmol), iron powder (1.40 g, 25 mmol) and NH4Cl (2.14 g, 40 mmol) in CH3OH:H2O (4:1, 60 mL) was refluxed for 6 hrs. The reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was poured into water. The precipitate was collected by filtration, and washed with water (20 mL×3) to afford 3-(oxazolo[5,4-c]pyridin-2-yl)benzenamine as a white solid (0.330 g, yield: 31%).
