Reaction Steps

8-Nitro-2-phenylquinoline was prepared according to the procedure outlined by Elderfield et al in J. American Chemical Society (1946), vol 68, p. 1589. In a typical run, 8-nitro-2-phenylquinoline (510 mg) was dissolved in 100 mL of MeOH. After the addition of 10% Pd on C (50 mg), the reaction mixture was thoroughly purged with nitrogen. It was then stirred vigorously at room temperature under 1 atm of hydrogen for 18 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 380 mg of 2-phenylquinolin-8-amine. MS (ESI) calcd for C15H12N2 (m/z): 220.10. found: 221 [M+1].
