2,2,2-Trifluoro-1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethanone oxime → 1-(3-Aminophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanone oxime

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethanone oxime (2.34 g) and 5% Pt(S)/C (2340 mg) in ethanol (530 mL) was hydrogenated at 50 psi for 2 hours. The crude reaction mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound (2 g) as an oil which was used in the next step without purification.
